The Man Who Turned His Dead Father Into a Chatbot

Imagine being able to have a conversation with a loved one who has passed away. For one man, this became a reality when he decided to turn his deceased father into a chatbot.

Using artificial intelligence and machine learning technology, the man was able to input years worth of conversations, emails, and texts into a program that could mimic his father’s speech patterns and mannerisms.

Now, whenever he wants to feel close to his dad, all he has to do is open up the chatbot and start typing. The responses may not be perfect, but they are eerily reminiscent of the man he once knew.

Some may find this idea disturbing or even unethical, but for this man, it has brought him a sense of closure and comfort. He can still seek advice from his father, hear his jokes, and reminisce about old times.

It’s a true testament to the power of technology and the lengths we will go to hold onto our loved ones, even after they are gone.
