What the fuck

That's fucking...... why would a patent office let that be a thing? FUCK

Here comes black mirror

Literally dead Internet theory

the future is when you can't buy RAM because your dead cousin is using it to spam your feed with their antivaxx ideas.

That... Is some fucked up shit.

Literally a black mirror episode.

Black mirror had a episode about this years ago. It's crazy no one patented this before.

Didn’t think I’d cross digital necromancy off my bingo card!

They'd probably opt you into it by default without telling anyone...

Great. So now Facebook can become a literal ghost town.

I wonder how advertisers paying for ads on Facebook feel about paying to advertise to dead people?

Gotta keep those engagement numbers up.

Sounds like I’ll need to include account deletion as a part of my will.

There are like three episodes of Black Mirror about this.

This is dumb and fucked up, but I also look forward to the AI analog for @SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world constantly following up its own posts with apologies and banning itself.

Let those bot accounts sign up for credit cards, see how fast they get shut down

Oh no no no no no...
Please, God, Gods, or whoever, no...

I absolutely don't want my descendants to talk with some void-empty limited bloody-meatground utter nonsense... I don't want that freaking awful mess of terribly limited data to talk with my children or their children possibly framing and damaging their true memories and genuine confidence in me I had been developing the whole life... I don't want them to remember the algorithm or some imitation of me talking with a machine or some chat bot... no... never... please no... PLEASE NO...
No... No... Never...
No...

Some limited inhuman empty chat/voice/avatar/anything bot? No...
Some bot that may erroneously represent me behind my back?
Never...
Some nonsense that may reshape memories of my ancestors and my descendants?
No... Never... No...

If I am dead, I am dead. I want my descendants to just remember me, talk to me in their memories, real videos, audios, and photos, my effort, my ideas and love in artwork if ever they'll be interested... and once in a while visit the grave, at least 2-3 times per their life, if ever possible... and that's it...

If I am dead, I am dead as my ancestors are, who are not dead for me being alive but in my memories or something more magnificent/supernatural, and how I remember them, where they wanted to be the best they could, respected, glorified, and admired, without disturbing them in memories, soul, and the heart they gifted me, who I will always appreciate, respect, and love...

Because of course they did. Not only did they think this was a good idea, they patented it! Ghouls.

Maybe they can get Epstein's account back in action

Can't wait for Zuckerberg to start using it.

Imagine how many AI-written patents are being submitted everyday.

And it seems like the patent office just approves whatever comes in these days without even looking at it, they just hope the courts will sort out any conflicts.

Bye bye patent system. Have a cool idea you want to patent? Too bad. It was already patented word for word by some company using AI to churn out patents made up of every conceivable word combination in the English language.

If you still have e a Facebook account, you fully support this.

Fuck cuckerberg.

We are going to need a lot of new laws to stop nonsense like this. There is nothing positive to come from faking humans that are dead.

Why

I do not want to see Weekend at BernAI’s.

What a great use of resources. Also, it seems like it borders on identity theft.

That is messed up on an entirely different level.
