Pelkey’s sister and brother-in-law used the technology to recreate his image and voice likeness to “talk” to the courtroom about his life and the day he met Gabriel Paul Horcasitas, who shot him during a confrontation near Gilbert and Germann roads.
Stacey Wales, Pelkey's sister, said everyone who knew Pelkey "agreed this capture was a true representation of the spirit and soul of how Chris would have thought about his own sentencing as a murder victim."
Pelkey’s family sought justice and found some peace in the process, especially seeing how one of Stacey’s children reacted to seeing their Uncle Chris one more time.
”'Mom and Dad, thank you so much for making that. I needed to hear from Uncle Chris one last time. And that meant so much, thank you.' That is not what this is intended to do. The result of it having it be a healing piece for anybody who saw it was just a beneficial result,” said Stacey.
Your family doesn't love you and society is fine delighting in the presence of a computer wearing your skin as a replacement.
I know a guy who grew up and lived a long time around Gilbert.
everything he has ever said about the place makes it sound dangerous, stupid, and evil.
Also, it's literally the sister's words next to a barely animated image of him. They couldn't just bring in a male family member to read this statement next to a big photo of him in court?
yankees are so fucking normal
I think i would prefer the old school necromancy
wot if ur death was a marketing opportunity for an ai company
if he's been resurrected through AI then by not continuing to run that AI with constant stimulation you are killing him again. charge them with infinite murder.
live forever as you are now
Goddammit, I need to watch On Cinema.

I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
The days of Cash 4 Kids are over who needs to bribe judges to fill private jails when CCI can spin up an AI dept use their existing contacts to become court approved jurisdiction by jurisdiction and then generate AI testimony of the victims of crime to leverage longer prison sentences that they administer. It's the perfect vertical integration.
Victim impact statements are admissable in sentencing decisions.
They've finally done it, they've found a durable ROI mechanism for AI.
