Using AI to Talk to the Dead Some people are using artificial intelligence chatbots to create avatars of departed loved ones. Dr. Stephenie Lucas Oney is 75, but she still turns to her father, William Lucas, for advice. How did he deal with racism, she wonders. How did he succeed when the odds were stacked against him? The answers are rooted upon William Lucas’s experiences as a Black man, from Harlem, who made his living as a police officer, FBI agent and judge. Oney listens to the answers, delivered in her father’s voice, on her phone, through an app powered by artificial intelligence. It generates responses based on hours of interviews conducted with William Lucas before he died, in May 2022. To learn more about Oney’s and others’ experiences with AI, tap the link in our bio.
