What was said
"I could be here after I'm physically dead and you can have an interview with me and the AI will answer based on their entire knowledge of my output. This could be a very commonly purchased device to have one's loved ones there for Thanksgiving or Christmas, carrying on conversations that are totally realistic."
Friedman predicts that AI systems trained on internet corpus data will enable realistic posthumous conversations with deceased individuals. This technological immortality through probabilistic reconstruction of speech patterns represents a new form of continued existence beyond physical death, anticipated to become a commercial product for maintaining family connections.
