On Monday, professor Dan Remenyi gave a talk on possible future of AI: Griefbots and Memorybots. Whatever you might think about AI and its involvement in human lives, it was a very interesting talk with a rather thought inducing discussion afterwards.

The talk by professor Remenyi about Griefbots and Memorybots will take place in the library today at 6pm - don't miss it! 😊

An AI Griefbot is a specialised chatbot built from datasets comprising the words, actions, descriptions and memories of a deceased individual. This enables users to engage in conversations that can feel strikingly real with our deceased family member or friend.

Professor Dan Remenyi has had a lifelong interest in Artificial Intelligence since his teenage years and has worked in a variety of roles in the ICT industry for most of his life.

The event takes place in one week's time on Tuesday, 20 October at 6pm.
