I'd love to see some publications from their R&D to outline how this won't turn into another one of those chat bot apps that you can have write Facebook posts in your style based on frequency analysis of your past posts.
- gohrt 13y agoYou are looking at it backwards.... The "I see dead people" pitch is veneer of scientific respectability, to get academic funding. Marketing spam is the intended application.
- frugalfirbolg 13y agoNo doubt it will be used for marketing spam. I can just imagine my digital ghost telling anecdotes about how in my day and age Intel was a respectable company and that most of my computers used their CPUs, so my ancestor should consider them for their computing needs... <sigh> reminds me of a Futurama episode. I'd still like to see why they think they can do better than what's already out there. Especially if they're making a play for academic funding, they need to publish something. Note: this comment is without the benefit of searching for each of the team members prior works; if the company is not pointing to any particular technique or publication I'm not enthused enough to dig deeper.
