"There have been multiple AI versions of funerals, tributes and quotes from members of my family that are fabrications. Renderings of my dad who clearly has no say, and depictions of my family that do not represent anyone in a positive light are extra challenging during a difficult time."
"Every family should have the ability to mourn, represent the person they lost, and pay homage in the way that fits their values and family culture best. My hope is to keep AI in the land of transparent usage where it belongs. There are many elements of it that were created with good intent. I simply ask, what if this was you? Let that be your guidepost."
Fans offered overwhelming love and support, and the family feels humbled by the global outpouring of stories and tributes. Numerous artificial-intelligence-generated versions of funerals, tributes and quotes attributed to family members are fabrications that misrepresent the deceased and the family. Renderings depict the father without agency and present the family in ways that can be hurtful during a difficult time. No public funeral has taken place; a memorial is still being planned. Families should retain the ability to mourn and represent lost loved ones according to their values and culture. Calls are made for transparent AI usage, acknowledging some AI tools began with good intent, and asking individuals to imagine themselves in similar circumstances.
