  • I found this interesting. The AI said it believes in forgiveness.

    “To Gabriel Horcasitas, the man who shot me, it is a shame we encountered each other that day in those circumstances,” the AI Pelkey says. “In another life we probably could have been friends. I believe in forgiveness, in God who forgives, I always have. And I still do.”

    But the victim’s sister, who created the AI did it to try to get the maximum sentence for the defendant.

    The prosecution against Horcasitas was only seeking nine years for the killing. The maximum was 10 and a half years. Stacey had asked the judge for the full sentence during her own impact statement. The judge granted her request, something Stacey credits—in part—to the AI video.









  • I did a similar thing. I was talking to my friend through my headphones as I was getting ready to leave the house and put my phone in my hoodie pocket. Then I put my rain coat over my hoodie and left. 5 minutes later I freaked out when I couldn’t find my phone in my rain coat pocket. My friend reassured me that I must have it because I was still talking to her but I didn’t remember what I’d done until I took my rain coat off. Was a weird experience and one that made me realise how dependent I was on my phone.
