With “thanabots,” ChatGPT is making it possible to talk to the dead
AI programs like ChatGPT can create "thanabots" based on deceased
loved ones' digital communications, allowing us to talk with the
departed. August 4, 2023

Quote:
ChatGPT is making it possible to digitally resurrect the dead in the
form of thanabots: chatbots trained on data of the deceased.
A program called Project December already allows users to input
information about a person and have a custom chatbot created for them
based on that person.
As Facebook, Google, Apple, and Microsoft all store heaps of our
digital communications, it's conceivable that they all could create
and sell thanabots in the coming years.

With GPT5 plus online history, does that mean that online
personalities will never die?
Could they continue to post to Exi-chat forever?
