Meta patents AI that takes over a dead person’s account to keep posting and chatting
The filing, granted in late December and originally submitted in 2023, describes how a large language model could replicate a person’s online behavior using their past data.

As reported by Business Insider, this includes posts, comments, chats, voice messages, likes, and other interactions, allowing the system to respond to content, publish updates, or message other users in a way that mirrors the original account holder.

According to the patent, the model “may be used for simulating the user when the user is absent from the social networking system,” including cases where the person is on a long break or deceased. The filing notes that the impact is “much more severe and permanent” if the user has died and cannot return to the platform.
