A.I. Is Coming For Your Grief | Eternal You Sundance Interview

Eternal You dives deep into the emerging industry of digital immortality. It’s a look at the present and future of A.I.’s role in the human grieving process and the companies eerily trying to commodify it. We spoke to directors Moritz Riesewieck and Hans Block about the most surprising interactions with A.I. avatars they covered and whether or not we're just looking at the tip of the artificial intelligence iceberg.

Their topic seems interesting. My son said to be immortalized via AI...without a soul?

[@anachronologist2017]

This is dangerous stuff we're playing with. There is a fundamental difference between a real and virtual personality.and that is humanity's capacity for empathy. A machine, no matter how intelligent, cannot have the level of self awareness to a point of seeing itself as different from being actually human.

Don't be naive

Since when was I subscribed to this??

[@chefnyc]

I also “subscribed” to the channel for top 10 movie lists. But too much other stuff lately

@@chefnycexactly. I feel most of us have.

[@hansterhorst4362]

weird I don't even remember subscribed to this channel either.

[@chefnyc]

@@infesta7 My guess is that a larger media corporation bought our beloved CineFix channel and all the existing subscribers of the channel were moved here. I would really love to be able to subscribe to a "sub-channel" or a playlist in a given channel. I don't have a home screen on UA-cam (since I disabled Watch history, it's empty). So I rely on subscriptions page to keep up with new videos.

It should be forbidden for AI to impersonate individuals (perhaps outside of the arts). Scam calls and forever presidents otherwise.

If I worked for ign I would be so embarrassed. “Mom I finally got to work for a news outlet!” Haha none of the respect though 😂

[@sustelsuk]

I refuse to watch ai driven nonsense

[@maxvandalfsen8273]

That's literally the point of the movie......

[@fullup91]

Yet you're a youtube consumer which is driven by AI algorithms that learn who you are and shape what you view based on who you are....

[@Emeraldtrinket]

Yeah
You better start watching independent films and tv then. Everything by any large company will be created or ran with ai.
