Sundance documentary Eternal You shows how AI companies are 'resurrecting' the dead

A woman has a text chat with her long-dead lover. A family gets to hear a deceased elder speak again. A mother gets another chance to say goodbye to her child, who died suddenly, via a digital facsimile. This isn't a preview of the next season of Black Mirror -- these are all true stories from the Sundance documentary Eternal You, a fascinating and frightening dive into tech companies using AI to digitally resurrect the dead. It's yet another way modern AI, which includes large language models like ChatGPT and similar bespoke solutions, has the potential to transform society.
