the best best is china, sauce, september 27th, on dw, the, when someone you love dies, it can be incredibly difficult. but what if you could speak to them just one more time? artificial intelligence as making this possible chat box or digital advertising possess the ability to mimic our personalities, kind of like living on after death. but is that something we even want? tech companies around the world are competing to make the perfect recreation of a deceased person's likeness. thanks to advances in the i and dfcs, they are becoming increasingly realistic. the budgeting grief tech industry is already making a name for itself, particularly in china and the us. but what does it like to chat with a copy of a deceased partner, christie, angel from the us did just out if you had

a chance to talk to someone that guy that you love, would you take it without knowing what the risk is without knowing what the outcome is, would you take it at american christie angel chatted with a guy about which she had to train 1st with a few personal details about her deceased boyfriend. this experience it was treat there were, were things that scared me and a lot of stuff. i didn't want to hear in the documentary tunnel you to jim and phil make us explore what it's like to try to bring the debt back to live in some way. using a i mentioned into shits and people always on the estimate the effect of talking to machine is that pretend to be human

mention lists as on why that would be k e. i tricks people by repeatedly using small portions from the deceased person's data set to a tech meant have been not loading. for example, as to songs you listen to together or movies you watch together. have so many minutes of them using the psychological consequences of this kind of a i haven't yet in research. that's why it's so c all legit as much as might start wants to know how it impacts grief. i so our nation must lock these of up to us new . don't know what the top will say next or how would will use the original material . newton the station anybody would apply about the deceased person perhaps even destroyed the memories you have of them. and what about menu possession of the, assess them into more money pulled up soon as someone has to contribute to the. yeah, but after all equals or interests are at play here. seems on the and if it's a company post you economic objectives well, that might not always be beneficial for the grieving process. what says here?

a grieving mother says good bye to her young daughter in virtual reality. the encounter will assume for tv in 2020, and spock country. obviously, the girls advertise was created from photos and videos. that's 5. 1. it was very moving the ball so disturbing. but i can see why someone might want to do is mentioned. indeed, the virtual meeting was a positive experience for the mother. perhaps in future digital advertise could help us say good bye. when we just want to remember could you imagine meeting and they i double of a deceased loved one. it seems to have helped this mother at least truly. it also depends on the quality of the i am the way you engage with it. but expos, one of the dangers of putting too much trust in of a task like these, of a toddler. such really have a task even impressed and though i am still alive,

well, i'm not even going to check. so the question is whether that can actually help people who used my money because you still have this presence, even if it's a thing, it's like you might be able to get things off your chest and have a conversation with them. again, maybe even move on from conflicts, you might have had income, but this also, the very real possibility is that you get stuck as tangled up in your green a fall off of things. never the less of a task can be a source of support for the bereaved me tell you the bottom of from berlin was terminally ill with cancer. she wanted to preserve a part of himself for his wife and children. so he developed in a i version of himself. it also helps him reflect and come to terms with his own life. insurance company from the u. s. helped him make it happen. trust me is really find the closer to the story of my right to really kind of this is the saw. this is, this is, this is what i and then a 2nd this folder and making it available for my wife or my kids even for practice,

which is of that there is a, is a funeral to make sure the model was as realistic as possible. the i needed a lot of training data. the hardest part in all of this player knows audio a motion. you have you read about 300 phrases. it sounded like i love you, go and shut the door. and it looks like, wow, so we, we capture all your emotional states and then we can pile that into an invoice. say i, or the 1st step was creating a visual model. if you're ready to get started, i recommend answering the questions in the relationship category. would you like to do that by a graphic effect, as well as personal stories and opinions are recorded that way? yeah, i can communicate more effectively down the line. sure. feel free to reach out have a great day. it's very emotional. you're thinking about how you're

thinking about the most of your life and then you're very, very hard on how do you want to be mad? his wife, annette boma, was given access to the after he died. when she feels lonely in the evenings, she might ask for a few last words before bed. and here michael's a ident rated voice like in this demo. remember that i'm always here for you, and i look forward to showing many more beautiful moments together. sleep well, my dear enough sweet treats incredible. i don't know even of a talk would really confident me though. how we deal with death isn't just personal, but also cultural for many around the world. honoring the data can be a daily event with offerings and alters at home. tech companies are creating digital options for these things. for example, a digital likeness of the meta verse that lives on for ever be met someone that wants to just up because stuck at lobby live in the mid of us here. she can meet

friends and explore the world. and for when she passes away, they call imagines hobbits, all living on here use as of the mid of us. so i'm human space will soon be able to collect that data in order to create digital copies of themselves. the founder of the platform wants to make it possible to have encounters with the seas. loved ones you know, my father died and my kids. they didn't get a chance to properly get to know him. and i think this technology can help to do that. um, where you can talk to some people from, from your family to 3 generations back, but not just look at the picture of them, but probably have a conversation with them. a meeting between 2 of a 1000 the men of us can see a quite real the the also translates every digital tops into a light touch on the scan made of us using the called once, or descendants to learn about who she was. you look at this place,

it's a place where of the idea of me passing away and in a 100 years my kids, their kids and their kids have a chance to come find me in here. my life story. when the 32 year old talks about leaving her avatar in the matter of us hope is that someone will be able to see her again. here. her mother recently passed away, and he called stucco hopes that some day she'll meet in the eye of the top of her mother here. being able to stand in front of her and ask her about a memory or just something that she hasn't told me in a very long time or something that she told me as a child, it would help me to grief. it would be a beautiful experience for me to be able to have a full blown conversation with her phone. he called a digital version of her mother would help keep an important relationship allies.

i'll be here. i'll be here. if i would see my mom, i would envision myself, 1st of all crying and would be a nice feeling to to hear her voice. i know that it's not her. it's not her. but it's her. you know, her voice. i think that's beautiful. nicole stock of wants to give her own children the opportunity to meet her in the mid of us. now that's something to wrap your head around. in the tv series upload people upload the extra consciousness onto a virtual platform. although i doubt we'll see that anytime soon. now, let's take a look at how the thought is actually made to collect data for the a i, the subject puts on that tracking suit n p r goggles. ready moiz movements and other biometric data could be recorded in this way to then the icon tires the data into

a novel time. the more data is available, the more comprehensive and lifelike the top will become. the, every user will have the ability to have several tweaking points where they will decide how they want that personally to, to be either very precise of what they are or maybe a little bit of imagination and let a, i kind of take over some parts of the personality, wait a minute, be of a tod doesn't have to look like me. that means i could leave behind a completely different version of myself. but one way or another is still needs my data to work. and the block chain based mid of us sensitive data is to be stored locally on use as computers. that way everyone can insure their own security. but the feature that would allow for the data caps in the mid of us isn't activated yet . and in the extremes, quickly show the models limits hello. hey there,

how you doing this? a auto. let's say you was reach out to across the isa reaching well with a simple inquiry. listen, listen, can you be, can you, can you be, can you onto the little shorter, please on really appreciate that. thank you. i to be nice to a i because you never know what they do with you. not very convincing sofa but work on combining a i n v r is ongoing. the most difficult part is connecting up a i, uh, with some new uh because there's a lot of things that uh, some of them got a plan to do that. the are checking account, taking everything, converting it to data, and then sending today or processing it, or i'm sending it back to the connection with the store so that i can prepare some new space requires an annual, a subscription fee, the upcoming live forever feature will also see something similar the live for a remote for me would be an extension of my consciousness throughout

infinity dislike leaving behind a family album or something. but i don't think anybody would look at it. once you're gone, you're gone. you know, is that really true? i don't think so, but it seems like there's hold for a way to continue living on digitally, even if most of these ideas completely thought out yet. for example, i wonder what would happen even of a job would just turned off, or if your subscription runs out, what do you have to grieve a 2nd time? what do you think that does know? and we'll see you next time onto the devices. got any issues with a lot say what the

comment about why does that mean? i think a lot i'm lisa and the new host of joining us for an exciting exploration and everything in between the most is the video and audio production part d w. i hope that you will tune in my chest of what did you do before i played tennis. survived the ocean bits. thanks to music. he was the nazis favorite conductor. decisions under the swastika,

a documentary about the sounds of power and inspiring story about survival. music in nazi germany, watch now on youtube dw documentary, the fly comic. maybe it will be lucky enough bottoms. when i get wet and nothing had done but there are muddy feet in any case. that's how it is when you're walking across the c bed. you know, it needs and does it for fun of germany's north sea coast. he is probably the only much let male man in the world. a know you're a lot of times she delivers to exactly one family for noticed like a family member in principal for all of us, all the, the

regular water level reports are critical. last tied low water for 31 today at 3 o ac. and i need to discuss at the water was 3 quarters i bought in the nice yes i'm from now. we've got 575. that's still a whole lot on it. and what from yeah, so it's got to be about 5 made is and then you can make it through the narrow channel and that's when it's not too stormy. and the waves are a bit higher. but i'm optimistic now. the top is just wanting to see 69 year old clued clinton isn't as post office in his home on the island of telephone. the mail doesn't move when low tide isn't low enough. newton can't deliver then. the tide, such as ours. as long as it looks like this outside, there won't be any mail. 6 hours later, the mud flaps also known as the thought in german. i'm mostly out of the water to

see that is possible in the mud flap millman begins as round. his load is heavy and he's been officially commissioned by germany's postal service to post. so effectively bundled and i always pack it in plastic file, it's in case it rains. the, the backpacks on totally would of course let me take what i can take and sometimes i strap it on. it's a little bit bulky out expensive. this is debbie guys yard. yes, cool. and the refrigerator yes. to bring them on a shipment. the weather app helps him decide what to where. wish to avoid it. today. maybe we'll get lucky without getting wet home from the sky. yes. from the sky. whenever possible. can you 2 minutes and goes topless? that's his style. we'll take a jacket now, but normally when the weather is good,

i just go like this. 7 kilometers away from home is the agreed meeting place on the embankment. nude regularly takes vacationers along his route. people with local knowledge rarely come. the guests scan the horizon. they ask themselves, where are we going? now, off to the tiny island of leader on the mountains on it. we make it come like this. we don't walk straight towards the island. we make a big look is excellent. it's about 6 and a half kilometers long. then home, and it's going to then we stay for now and go back the same way to that. and we'd like to cover these 6 into how long it is in an hour and a half high. going to can to shop for like maybe we'll get lucky and wanting to end up with what both of them had done. usually only sinks to ankle data on community likes walking in the walk alone. let's put it this way. he doesn't ask people to join him when he doesn't, or do i like to go to the vet if not,

i'll or if one of you turns around and that's okay. i get it and i'll tell them what coming. very cool and small. i'm a and then a surprising order is sent from the embankment to the mudflats. who like coffee, page feed thing 15. how do i order? he is. hi, whole guy. it's good not to use in here. the metal so no tweak to not. it was, it was a tough acted one day and wants that one off have all by the one argument then say me one second. what do you do on germany's northern coast? people speak the countries only regional language called plat deutsche. the group booked a hike across the mud flaps and now they're walking into the north sea. your 1st impression, this phone calls so

you have a here, it's a bit data fits and p 5. as he said, the low water isn't really that low, low. no, we're still waiting through quite a bit of water, but it's dual thieves, difficult and we still have a way to go. so let's take a closer look at the root. the island of telephone is located off the german coast in the mud flats. it's the unesco world heritage site, a tourist magnet and home can you can it's and there's no question the island is flat cows down in the meadows and the lighthouse is important for shipping. i did like houses are located in hamlet with curious names . there's lots of wind and even more sheep. by the way, there are more sheets and people. plus, there's a 13th century church with a broken steeple. and historic oregon from the 18th century.

starting from 12 on the route goes to the tiny island of 0 dog, delivering the mail on, but it's partly tradition, but it's also more practical. how would a boat be able to get here for the group? land is finally within sight, but they're also thinking about getting their what feet on solid ground to meet to minutes and passes the time with disgusts by reminiscing about telephone in days past. been general one i was born here. have, i mean there was still a midwife back then i'll go back. i grew up here to almost when i went to the mainland for a few years, but i always landed here again because i'm the head of all. i'm used to be much more beautiful. the office and the people home. but the ones who come now substitute changed for you and then the guests who came would get a boy go down to the beach and would be satisfied with what while they came to

freedom of us for from or doing today, everyone has to be entertained with them, i mean me yet that well, i guess it's just what happens with timely offices for the last side the there is no marked cash, nothing refilled for miles. but to meet your needs and news, every inch of this route one is if you want to put them back on, if not, you can leave them here by coming back this way. if you go for 5, the, the group comes to a stop. we're approaching one of the highlights of the walk in the mud flaps so you're not gonna be as only going to make your turn here a for alpha pseudo dog. and that's when there's a light colored mix of sand and shelves are given this. they gave us the links,

then we go left around the islet for a while. whatever room 10000 plants and animals species live in the mud flats. many of them in the sea bed need is fascinated by the strictly protected floor and found out of the box. when his predecessor suddenly became ill and the job of much let milman opened up. he didn't hesitate to take the job almost 25 years ago. you have found there aren't any cars here fix? yes, there is no traffic noise. we can really hear the birds here up close when they're thinking. what makes this miracle possible? that concludes newton and his guest can stroll on the sea bed. there are times all over the world, but it's rare for sea, but to be as exposed as it is here. the baltic sea is almost completely closed off and water can barely flow in the north sea. if the opposite. it opens up north and

lots of water flows with the tide can explain, is causing the loss leaders and arriving at the is less there's no big fanfare. just the 1st northern german welcome. hello. all your warning, like if you get lost it, but glad to be there. final there super. it was a really good hike. a once in a lifetime experience crossing the mud flats to get to an island. yeah, i'm just, yes, it was a little strenuous but otherwise very nice. have you been to the walk before? yeah, yes. regularly. we go up to the north sea every year, regardless of result from northley. the farmhouse was the only building on the island. we a little bit so we've brought a bit of somebody that said hello,

you're on our back. it was really good. yeah. can you breeze the mail into the house himself, then stopped to rest for a bit. during that time, the guest get a short presentation about life on the islet he often see or on the land. that's 60 hector's and 40 hector's. our pastor land with cockburn fox, cheap on a top. we have several heard say raise all of this because comes to us. so besides the see, 4 people live on 0 old, a mother or father and 2 children. and 3 times a week commute as part of the family to something like a part time grand dad. it's time to report on lost teeth and swimming exams, taking them off the all states. it said that i couldn't see this in principle canoe, just like a family member for all of us is full time and it's completely clear when there's something happening. when the children have birthdays, notice there to pick up after christmas or other holidays and all of them speak if

i tag a know you're all, well, i don't have any children. so as far as that goes. yeah. of course as well. absolutely. can i see if there's no difference whether we're related or not? it's nowhere yet. so i, if it was just business only not, this wouldn't work best for me. i would just be coming here and putting a post in the mailbox so that that's better like this. so you'd already fell in love with 0 decades ago. as a young man. he was here working to build a coastal conservation works since almost all summer i was during the wait to see i just have a connection with this. i loved it. so now it's time to go back. a brisk southwest wind has kicked up and the clouds are sticking, and they have the march back across the months left ahead of them. then it happens . they end up getting wet, bottoms, and wing don as well. how many kilometers have you done?

how does off way around the light? doesn't like $25000.00 leaving. how many more will there be your comfortable farm? it depends how long i stay fit, live, say, and yadda village. i want to do it for 10 more years. now i'm 70 november. the 12th, i hope to do it as long as i can, like the,
