Title: Stay active online after you're dead.
Post by: ObscureBean on August 22, 2015, 07:51:19 AM
Wanna receive messages from your dead friends from time to time? Or maybe you would like to keep trolling after you kick the bucket? Well fear not, Eter9's AI will learn your personality and continue posting for you after you die :D What's interesting is that your 'counterpart' will continue 'liking' and 'following' stuff on your behalf so I wonder if popular people would be able to sell their avatars before they die ;D 
What is it with humans and the desire to live forever ???

If that is true... social media will be a very huge thing in the future - lots of active accounts!

The 5000 people will be very famous in the future when they are death..

Interesting idea. I wonder if anyone owning a beach front property in Malibu with a Ferrari in the garage has signed up. Because when the guy dies, I could go live in his house and drive his car to make anyone believe he's still alive. And I wouldn't ask much money to deliver this service.

Goal of life added: make a bot to post and send email for people and talk in the messengers like I was still alive, and keep don't let anyone know about it.

Trolling even after dead

I bet these bots can take over signature campaigns from live people.
Will save a lot of money for advertisers.  :P

neat idea. but I hope they set the AI to always refuse when someone ask to meet them in person. I dread the day I'll be asking a dead chick out for a date.

another good idea, make unknown people want to meet me before they realize I'm dead.

would be top class trolling

Great idea! If every one signs up to this service, I am afraid the social media will get busted after several years!

What is it with humans and the desire to live forever ???


Quote from: David Konstan, “Epicurus,” Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy, 2014
[Epicurus] regarded the unacknowledged fear of death and punishment as the primary cause of anxiety among human beings, and anxiety in turn as the source of extreme and irrational desires.

My closest friends are all dead.

My closest friends [have] all d[ie]d.


Is one "dead" (Sourgummies), or has one "d[ie]d" (Sourgummies)?

Quote from: Epicurus (341‒270 BCE)
Death does not concern us, because as long as we exist, death is not here. And when it does come, we no longer exist.

Was a joke but I dig that quote a lot.

I saw something about this on the news or a documentary or something a while ago. It's just weird and pointless.

It's not really living forever though is it? But people want to live forever because they fear death.
