In case you were looking for any more reason to think that Facebook is evil, it’s just come to light that Meta patented zombie tech back in 2023.
As the patent says, “The language model may be used for simulating the user when the user is absent from the social networking system, for example, when the user takes a long break or if the user is deceased.”
Black Mirror couldn’t come up with this shit.
Thankfully you’re not going to get a Candy Crush invite from your dead friend Kevin any time soon because a Meta spokesperson said that, “We have no plans to move forward with this example.”
It’s been three years since the filing so it doesn’t look like they’re in any rush to resurrect this idea (pun intended). Facebook’s also been deluged with AI slop recently so there’s a chance they’re finally realising that the general public just isn’t really down with relocating to the Uncanny Valley any time soon.
Still, the mere existence of the patent, even if they never planned to use it, just goes to show the lengths they’d be willing to go to for a quick buck.
“Wear your dead grandma’s dress and talk like she did?” asks Mr. Zuck, “Sure thing, sir! Anything you like, just keep watching, no, don’t look away, we have advertisements that need a-seeing.”
“Don’t look away! Look, I’m dancing! I’m dancing, just like you asked! Ad! I’m your grandma! Ad! She’s back! Ad! You’re grandma’s alive! Ad! You can feel happy again! Ad! Happy! Ad! Happy! Ad! Ad! Ad! Ad!”
