Fascinating piece about a friends drive to create a bot from the digital artefacts of her dead friend. As mentioned in the piece, it’s reminiscent of the 2013 episode of Black Mirror entitled “Be Right Back”, so if you haven’t seen that it’s worth tracking down and watching. It’s hard to know how this type of thing will shape human psyche in future but we’re going to have to tread carefully.
An excellent read by Tristan Harris. Seriously, take the 12 minutes and dive in, particularly if you’re involved in the tech industry. Fascinating, thought provoking and scary.
