For the next several weeks, endless_thread will be sharing episodes from their GOOD BOT, BAD BOT series. In the latest installment, meganisonline reports on the rise of chatbots meant to replicate deceased people.

Ben: Even though people think this whole concept is kinda weird, we’re going to talk about how this technology can help us, perhaps, improve our understanding of grief.

HereAfter AI is a company that is pioneering a new way to save and share the stories of the people you love. it, you know, came about first not as any desire to found a company or to develop new technology, but really just reckoning with a problem in my immediate family life, which was losing my father to lung cancer.James: Someone building the staff rather than critiquing this stuff happened in stages.

Amory: Joshua and the new Jessica talked for hours. He marveled how the AI mimicked her style of speech, emoji use, and sense of humor. Some things kinda spooked him.
