Cheaper than data centers.
How ghastly
Are they called Republicans. Lol.
I’m glad I’ll be dead in like 30 years if that
What will die is only your flesh. The data will still be processed, your voice, your chats, your forum entries. You will be feeding AI for eternity.
AI with its gluttony will not last forever; it is impossible to create metals and rare earths. So he will simply disappear like people and there will not even be a memory left of them.
But a dead man doesn’t care what they do to him, because a dead man almost doesn’t exist anymore, he doesn’t care, and data is just data.
If tech bros clone his voice and messages and present them to his family / consumers for a price he won't disappear from the market. It's hard to predict what will happen in 30 years. We might not exist or be at the point where we send robots that replicate themselves on different planets. We also don't know what death means as well as life.
Maybe after 1000 years of research scientists will take his remains as example and grow his brain from it. Maybe we figure out how to reverse time so his aura can be recovered and put into robot. Whatever is impossible today can't be assumed to be impossible tomorrow.

I'm going to make sure I keep a stock of brill cheese just in case things get out of hand.
