A Czech tech company called Somnium Space is developing the technology to capture a customer's personality and appearance for after death in what it describes as 'Live Forever Mode.'

A Czech tech company called Somnium Space is developing the technology to capture a customer's personality and appearance for after death in what it describes as"Live Forever Mode."

"If I die and I have this data collected ... my kids, they can come in, and they can have a conversation with my avatar, with my movements, with my voice," Somnium Space founder Artur Sychov told Vice."You will meet the person. And you would, maybe for the first 10 minutes while talking to that person, you would not know that it's actually AI. That's the goal."The project came to fruition after Sychov's father was diagnosed with cancer in 2017.

This data would be collected by VR headsets such as the Meta Quest and haptic VR suits, according to Sychov. Somnium also has a partnership with Teslasuit, a haptic suit developer. The Teslasuit would allow users to receive electric signals similar to human touch and track biometric data, including cardio and stress levels.

This movement data, intermixed with vocal recordings, would be combined by the company with artificial intelligence to adapt it into an avatar."We can take this data and apply AI to it and recreate you as an avatar on your land parcel or inside your NFT world, and people will be able to come and talk to you," Sychov said.Although some may express concerns about sharing so much data with a company, Sychov said he did not intend to sell that data to advertisers.

Big tech companies are finally making devices easier to repairBig tech companies are finally making devices easier to repairThe Right to Repair movement is making waves in the tech world. Here's how different companies are responding. I’ve replaced the battery on my iPhone 6 twice (myself). It was a huge pain in the butt. But the bigger problem is it can’t run the newest version of IOS, and apps like Amazon, LinkedIn, and Jimmy Johns won’t run on it anymore. I wish they’d fix that too.
