Abstract: "Mourning Becomes Electric," by David Berreby [December 2025], describes how some grieving people have found it helpful to interact with "digital ghosts" of their departed loved ones created by AI. Personally, the best source of closure that I have found comes from stories heard from old acquaintances, especially at end-of-life ceremonies. "CURTIS" MENOMONIE, WIS. [Extracted from the article]
