I ran across a video just the other day where Steve Jobs was talking about something very similar back in 1985[0]. It’s a compelling use case for AI, if it works well.<p>It would be interesting to train the AI on the works of someone living, then ask the living person and the AI the same questions to judge the quality and accuracy of the answers.<p>From there, it may not be a far jump to allow parents to create an AI based on their personality, thought process, voice, and likeness, so once they pass their kids or grandkids could still ask for advice or have a chat. Though I wonder if this would be too close to the Mirror of Erised from Harry Potter and cause problems for people who can’t let go.<p>[0] <a href="https://youtu.be/YYjlCrpH2is" rel="nofollow">https://youtu.be/YYjlCrpH2is</a>
