The artificial intelligence is constantly growing and increasingly given more uses. In the last hours it was leaked that Microsoft works on a technology that will allow people to talk to the dead .
The project raises the creation of a chatbot, or digital copy, of the person you want to recreate. In this way, a deceased person could be brought to life virtually.
For the creation of this bot, the system would use data from social networks, emails, text messages and voice. It would also collect photos and videos stored on different platforms.
“The specific person (whom the bot represents) may correspond to a past or present entity (or a version of it), such as a friend, a relative, an acquaintance, a celebrity, a fictional character, a historical figure , an entity, etc “, says the patent, which was disclosed by the technology site Ubergizmo.
Then he explains that “social data can be used to create or modify a special index on the subject of the specific person’s personality. The special index can be used to train a chat bot to converse and interact with the personality of a specific person. “
On the other hand, the patent also states that one of the purposes is for each person to have their own digital version. In addition, it clarifies that if the system lacks some data, the bot can resort to alternative sources to complete the information.
