A.I.05b: Google and Longevity / Artificial Consciousness
Urupipeṛ2 Ṫẁo
"On October 27, 2015, THE Telegraph.co.uk ran an article called, Family members could be kept alive forever using social media history—dead family members could be brought back to life using their history on social media to power virtual avatars.[19]
Simon McKeown is a Reader in Animation and Post Production at Teeside University. One of his projects is to “reawaken” our dead relatives in the future, by creating “synthetic digital life” with something called photogrammetry. Using this technique, scientist will be able to create an “accurate reconstruct of a virtual 3D shape of a human being from existing photographs and video. Computer voice synthesis, will take account local and regional accents to deliver a more accurate representation of what they sounded like.”[20] People would then be able to construct a reality where they never had to say goodbye to those they love. McKeown continues,
“Using emotion-sensitive human-computer interaction our artificially intelligent participants continue to acquire ongoing knowledge long after their death - they evolve digitally and do not die.”
