China Created AI Clone to Keep Son Alive For Elderly Mother: A case of use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has come to light in China, which has surprised people. This incident took place in China’s Shandong province, where a person died in a road accident. After her death, the family adopted a unique method to save her elderly mother from shock and created her digital avatar with the help of AI.

The family’s aim was to ensure that the 80-year-old mother, who also had a heart condition, did not go into deep shock over her son’s death. For this, he contacted Zhang Zewei, an AI expert from Jiangsu province and provided him photographs, videos and voice samples of the deceased. These also included several recordings of his conversations and local dialect.

It is reported that this avatar even mimics his physical movements like bending while talking, making it seem even more real.
