A woman spoke about the consequences of artificial intelligence that is designed to help people, but can have negative effects.
Technology offers a new way that aims to help people come to terms with their grief when they are grieving the loss of someone.
Thus, Generative AI has made it possible to build chatbots that can imitate a dead person and allow someone to chat with them.
The technology, called "griftech", is designed to allow someone to "talk" to someone who has died. But that's probably more creepy than good, according to Christi Angel. She lost her first love, whose name was Cameroun Scruggs, in 2020.
They lived in different countries and communicated mostly by text and email. She even attended his funeral via video call due to Covid-19 restrictions that year.
So, since they always talked by email, it was the perfect opportunity for her to "contact" him, using the grieftech software.
At first, she said, she was excited about the idea. "I was excited. I would give anything to talk to Cameron. I wanted to ask him: “Are you okay? Did you make it to the other side?” ", she emphasized.
But then things took a turn for the worse when HE started talking about "haunted" rooms. Finally, when Christy asked if Cameron had "followed the light", the chatbot told her "no" and that he was in hell.
Christi left very upset after this, saying: I thought it would be a good experience, but it was too creepy for me.
