AI Griefbots Mimic Deceased Loved Ones

Some people who have lost loved ones are using AI griefbots to talk to them.

These chatbots use text messages and voice recordings to mimic the deceased.

Many find it comforting, but some experts worry it might not be good for the grieving process.

They also worry that companies might be taking advantage of people who are sad and vulnerable.

These griefbots cost money to use, which makes some people think it's not right to profit from grief.
