Californian tech company Hereafter AI has developed an app that allows the living and the dead to communicate.
The vision of the company is to make complaints easier for those who have lost their loved ones.
For decades, both medical practitioners and spiritualists have wanted something similar. And now, due to the development of AI and speech technology, it is becoming a reality.
How Does Technology Work?
The app allows users to chat and engage with a person, past or present. It looks like the technology is straight out of a black magic episode.
This story originally appeared on the tech news website Protocol. Apart from your deceased family members, the app enables you to communicate with deceased friends, celebrities and historical figures.
The application can identify anyone’s voice and personal information from videos, letters or voice recordings. Later, the bot can be operated and interacted with by smartphones or any other smart device.
HereAfter AI tracks a person’s life story instead of letting you have an entirely new conversation with the bot each time.
