Revolutionizing Remembrance: The Rise of AI Avatars
The emergence of AI avatars, or “deadbots,” is reshaping how we interact with memories of the deceased. These digital beings are taking on new roles, becoming powerful advocates for social causes and even delivering impact statements in court.
Key Highlights:
- Persuasive Power: AI avatars are used to voice urgent issues, such as gun laws, creating emotional connections that drive advocacy.
- Commercial Growth: The digital afterlife industry is projected to quadruple to nearly $80 billion in ten years, sparking debates over ethics and exploitation.
- Legal Landscape: With no comprehensive federal laws in the U.S. governing deadbots, concerns around privacy rights and moral implications are surfacing.
