Meta has been granted a patent outlining an AI system capable of simulating a user’s activity on social media to post after their death.
Some fucked up shit.
What the fuck
the future is when you can’t buy RAM because your dead cousin is using it to spam your feed with their antivaxx ideas.
This is dumb and fucked up, but I also look forward to the AI analog for @SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world constantly following up its own posts with apologies and banning itself.
If you ban yourself too often you’ll go blind which is why I never have.
What a great use of resources. Also, it seems like it borders on identity theft.
It is exactly that, identity theft.
They’d probably opt you into it by default without telling anyone…
Literally dead Internet theory
Let those bot accounts sign up for credit cards, see how fast they get shut down
Why
Get grieving relatives hooked on talking to bots, then sell them subscriptions to keep the bots running
That’s fucking… why would a patent office let that be a thing? FUCK
This reminds me of that one judge that let prosecution use an AI approximation of a dead man against someone that killed the dead man to speak in the dead man’s voice and I just wanted to throw the justice system INTO THE OCEAN cause wtf. https://www.cnn.com/2025/05/09/tech/ai-courtroom-victim-impact-statement-arizona/
That is so horribly unethical. Wtf is wrong with people.
