AI Memorialization Myths vs Facts

The idea of "digital immortality" or "AI ghosts" makes for great headlines, but it often misrepresents what services like EchoAgain actually do. Let’s bust some myths.

Myth: It’s "Black Mirror" in real life.

Fact: Sci-fi shows often depict AI as sentient, manipulative, or indistinguishable from reality. In reality, our tools are passive. They don't "think" or "feel." They simply read the text you provide in a voice that sounds like your loved one. You are in full control.

Myth: It’s disrespectful to the dead.

Fact: Memorialization has always involved technology—from death masks to photography to video. Preserving a voice is simply the modern version of keeping a photo in a locket. It is an act of love, not disrespect.
