No need for lawyers and all that crazy legalese when you have a chat bot
So when most of the jobs are done by automated technology what will people fill their time with? YouTube videos? Sigh….
What interests me Cara, is how this might become a mundane part of the “end-of-life” process, inasmuch as interactions with non-human agents might become normalized to an extent that people who are nowadays constantly staring at their smart phones would baulk at varieties of human interaction during the course of their lives which have no digital expression, ie, if it isn’t digitally mediated it isn’t really real…
Yes, that is interesting. When we live our lives digitally how much of life is real and if we arrange our death’s processes virtually, how much is real?
I would tend to see this as more an avoidance type behaviour. People don’t like to address difficult topics with others…. witness how many people will not talk about death itself with others (“it’s a dark subject”) or have little idea how to respond to people who have lost a loved one. Many things that are difficult get pushed away from conscious attention. Maybe the illusion / prospect of anonymity makes it easy to deal with in some way? Kind of like people will journal their fears and anxieties if they think the journal will be private and unseen…. If a will is prepared by an AI is it “unseen” and somewhat anonymous?
