I turned myself into an AI-generated deathbot - here's what I found

BBC News

I turned myself into an AI-generated deathbot - here's what I found If a loved-one died tomorrow, would you want to keep talking to them? Not through memories or saved messages, but through artificial intelligence - a chatbot that uses their texts, emails and voice notes, to reply in their tone and style. A growing number of technology companies now offer such services as part of the digital afterlife industry, which is worth more than £100bn, with some people using it as a way to deal with their grief. Cardiff University's Dr Jenny Kidd has led research on so-called deathbots, published in the Cambridge University Press journal Memory, Mind and Media, and described the results as both fascinating and unsettling. Attempts to communicate with the dead are not new.

Ai Weiwei on China, the West and shrinking space for dissent

The Japan Times

Censorship has been a constant in Ai Weiwei's life. The 68-year-old Chinese dissident, whose activist art has made him among Beijing's most prominent critics, has seen his films, sculptures and other works restricted for their criticisms of China as well as his outspoken advocacy for human rights around the world. Speaking in London ahead of the January 29 launch of his new book On Censorship," he discussed returning to China for the first time in a decade, the impact of AI on freedom of expression, and what he sees as the erosion of free speech in the West. This conversation has been edited and condensed for clarity. In a time of both misinformation and too much information, quality journalism is more crucial than ever.
