That gut punch article is despicable. Why people have to do that kind of thing is beyond me. Talk about disrespectful.

Yes, exactly. It’s awful, and there needs to be better deterrents in place to prevent it from happening in the fist place.

The article about using AI to help those that hear voices is pretty cool. It is a unique way of dealing with them.

It could be, yes, but I wonder how this would work in the real world?

I think there would need to be some strict protocols in place and that it would only allowed to be used with a therapist that has full control of it. Could you imagine if it progressed to something that someone could have on their phone and they were using it at home or out in public somewhere and basically got a mind of it’s own in the process and learned from the environment around it. That could be dangerous to the person using it and to others.

That’s my biggest fear right there.

Having recently experienced the loss of a family member, this literally sent a shiver up and down my spine.

To me, it’s morally wrong on every level to even consider this, but I’m open to debate.

Eternal You tells the story of a human experiment: what does it do to people to resurrect their deceased loved ones in order to talk to them? Who takes responsibility for the psychological and ethical consequences? And do we even want all this?

@phenomlab my initial reaction is wtf, I feel all frustrated all of a sudden .

Some people may be open to the idea but I certainly think it’s strange to say the least .
