Living Forever – How AI is Reshaping Life After Death

In the rapidly evolving landscape of technological advancements, artificial intelligence (AI) is making profound strides, reshaping industries and transforming not only societal norms but life itself.

Join us for a discussion that delves into the intersection of AI and the deeply human experiences of grief, bereavement, and one’s existence after death.

The panel, including Barnes & Thornburg's Chloé Margulis, will navigate through various dimensions of AI's influence, both positively and negatively, drawing inspiration from real-world examples and cutting-edge developments to extend one’s “life” by utilizing chatbots or avatars to keep us “alive.”

Discussion topics will include:

The Intersection of AI and Grief

AI Ethics: Opportunities and Unintended Consequences (both for regular people and public personalities)

Legal Issues: The Rights of the Deceased vs. the Rights of the Living

Technical Issues: What is Possible Today, What Could Be Possible Tomorrow

A Look Ahead: Preparing for the Future: Pros and Cons of a Digital Afterlife

Last Word: Where Do We Go From Here?
