      I think I mean like in a movie.

      A trope now is a widow looking at someone who passed with some longing. We’re starting to see more stories about the “AI afterlife” industry. I don’t think it’s long before movies or shows incorporate this hellscape we live into the plot.

        It’s pretty close to the plot of Upload, where people choose to upload their personality into a hologram, so they can exist forever. I think. Its been awhile since I watched it.

          Closer to a plot of one of the black mirror episodes.

          Upload is more like the digital afterlife stores full memories and people, not echoes of people
