Where is the boundary between remembrance and artificial presence?
Artificial intelligence (AI) is not only transforming the way we work, but also shaping our future — and even our “digital life” after death. Today, there are applications capable of preserving our voice, face, and personality, and even “conversing” with us after we die. But how ethical and secure is this, and what impact does it have on us? These questions are discussed by Daniel and Krisztián (Dr. Dániel Necz, LL.M. (Harvard), and Dr. Krisztián Bölcskei) in the latest podcast episode.
If you’re interested in how AI intertwines with our emotions, psychology, and digital legacy, this episode is for you!
