We have hit the time of immortality whether you want it or not. If you are or have been submitting your likeness and content to the internet there is a swarth of data to recreate your likeness and persona just "good enough".
In 2023 I can spin up a chatbot, train video, train audio, and have a realtime conversation with "you". Where will we be in 10, 20, XXX years? Your likeness will be and is being trained so that your offspring can pay to "re-live" your moments with "you" in AR.
Have that conversation with a long lost loved one you never had before. See how things may have turned out if you made the other decision. Act as a pin cushion voodoo doll for your enemies. It is a scary and mind-numbing thought.
And there is nothing you or any of us can do about it. I'll repeat - there is NOTHING you can do about it.
Digital Immortality is real. You may keep your pictures off the Facebooks of the world, but a photo ID and record of you exists somewhere. See you in the future. 😉
