Artificial Intelligence | [Digital] Life After Death
Artificial Intelligence | [Digital] Life After Death
Vicar Sayeedi
July 8, 2021
For tens of thousands of years, Homo Sapiens has made deliberate and extraordinary attempts to leave behind a record of its achievements, beliefs and presence on the Earth in a deliberate and unequivocal attempt to inform future societies of what has come before. From the 40,000 year-old Lion Man of Stadel carved from Mammoth ivory and found in a cave in Germany to the 4,600 year old mausoleum of Pharaoh Khufu at the Great Pyramids at Giza. From the nearly 4,000 year old legal code of the Babylonian King, Hammurabi to the death mask of the Florentine writer, Dante Alighieri and other prominent figures from the late Middle Ages, humankind has used many methods to inform future generations, even those who might come thousands of years later, that they are following in the footsteps of many great personalities, some well known and meticulously documented and preserved in the archeological and historical record, alongside the contributions of so many others who remain anonymous. Without a doubt, there is something hardwired in our Limbic System, an algorithm in our Mammalian brain, as a result of Evolutionary Psychology, some need in the Homo Sapiens that for seventy thousand years following the Cognitive Revolution has left us with a deep seated need to be remembered following our death.
Fortunately, in modern times, this desire of leaving behind a lasting legacy is becoming easier than ever before. Today, many people have the means to write or commission a professional biographer to compile their memoir. They can easily leave behind digital or paper documents and photographs or digital recordings and videos of great conversations, lectures or speeches of important contributions they have made to humankind or to their chosen field of endeavor. But perhaps most profound of all, in the not too distant future, deceased humans will be able to live on in digital form through Artificial Intelligence.
These Artificial Intelligence Agents will reside in our Smartphones, Smart watches and other ubiquitous devices and, during our lifetime, they will record every intimate detail about us. Then, upon our passing, these Agents will continue to represent us, perhaps as an Avatar or by inhabiting an exoskeleton that resembles our physical persona. Now, using these comprehensive and deep insights into our history and personality, we may be capable of inhabiting the present in perpetuity. These Agents will be capable of projecting what we might likely have said or might say in a particular circumstance or how we might react to a particular situation. They will essentially be extending our personality and presence indefinitely. It’s an extraordinary but understandably unsettling development and a probable reality for many.
Imagine, for example, the Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court having the capacity to consult America’s Founding Fathers on their original intent with regard to major constitutional questions that arise during debate or of the opportunity for Apple’s design team to consult Steve Jobs in 2020 about his thoughts on a new iPhone design or new product launch. Or perhaps what Albert Einstein might have to say on the ongoing attempts by contemporary scientists to uncover the Theory of Everything – the God Equation – that consumed thirty years of his life. Or how Leonardo Da Vinci might respond to the realization of many of the technologies that preoccupied his thoughts during his life, including the possibility of humans taking to the skies.
Scientists and Technology Pioneers are actively investigating how Artificial Intelligence might produce a dynamic and realistic version of someone who has died, not simply a static replica for the emotional benefit of close family members but evolving digital variants that might still be able to lead great companies or extraordinary statesmen that could direct the world through dangerous and unpredictable times. A number of established Tech giants including Microsoft as well as new enterprises including Here After AI and Replika believe that there will be great demand for these digital reproductions and personas in the form of Chatbots or Avatars that will gesture and speak in a personality and voice identical to that of a now deceased individual. In fact, holograms of deceased actors and artists have already been performing in film and on stage.
In a patent held by Microsoft, two of the Tech giant’s inventors have described an AI Agent that collects data from the various social media platforms and uses this data alongside recordings of a person’s voice and copies of their writings to train itself to speak and interact by replicating that individual’s personality. According to the patent filing, this person could be someone who has now passed away or even someone who is still alive. They might be an acquaintance or celebrity, a friend or relative or even a fictional or historical character and the AI Agent would be able to imitate this person’s voice and mannerism in a very realistic manner. As our digital personas improve with time, they may be able to learn and therefore continue to evolve beyond our passing and therefore adapt to events and life as it continuously unfolds. This would confer some measure of digital immortality by not just preserving our personality but allowing us to extend our lives in perpetuity in virtual form.
In such a reality, our immortal digital personas would continue to interact with our families, friends and descendants long after we have passed. We could also explore the universe without the limitations of our biochemical hosts and thus travel farther and longer than any ordinary human could in a normal lifetime. Or perhaps in a less dramatic application, our digital persona could be used while we’re still alive so we can keep our work progressing at the office while we holiday on a sun soaked beach thousands of miles away.
The possibilities and scope of this application and realm of Artificial Intelligence is endless and will undoubtedly leave many in society feeling reticent and uncomfortable particularly when confronted with the issue of grief and of letting go. But such AI Agents may soon be a new norm while we simultaneously raise ethical questions about whether or not human rights would be applicable to our digital personas and so many other questions of ethics and morality. In summary, the likelihood is high that these AI Agents may soon find their way into society and rapidly on a path to ubiquity.

Vicar has lectured widely on the subject of Artificial Intelligence including at the National Hemophilia Foundation, The Royal Boroughs of Kensington & Chelsea and Westminster in London, the National Library of Singapore and in Silicon Valley, California.
Vicar is most interested in the big questions facing humankind. He is particularly focused on studying at the confluence of the five great disciplines of Human History, Political Science and Thought, International Affairs, Science and Technology. This intersection offers a deep understanding and pedagogically important lessons of how advances in human endeavor have influenced and impacted civilization.
