For the living know that they shall die:
but the dead know not any thing....
Ecclesiastes 9:5
"Soon enough, artificial intelligence will allow us to construct a
digital version of a dead human being.
An MIT project on “Augmented
Eternity and Swappable Identities” 
....a “virtual-immortality chatbot,”
with which—with whom?—you could text back and forth.
Call it
UndeadGPT....the townspeople ought to have a say in what goes down in
Dr. Frankenstein’s basement.
If a digital facsimile of your lost loved one is talking to you, are
they truly present?
Is it closer to a home movie, or is it constantly becoming
in a way we’d recognize as human?
**It may even spawn a new concept: the
right to remain dead."
