I want a life-sized hologram deep-fake, coded with all of that stuff. People could come and ask questions or chat. It would take what they said and try to either recall or synthesize what my response might be. I would not want it online, insisting instead that people make a special trip to interact with my digital remains.

One of the main plot-lines is about a father creating a digital version of himself to leave for his son when he dies. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zendegi https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zendegi - http://www.gregegan.net/ZENDEGI/ZENDEGI.html http://www.gregegan.net/ZENDEGI/ZENDEGI.html
