Старенька китаянка спілкується з ai клоном свого сина не знаючи що він помер

👨 An elderly Chinese woman has been talking to an AI clone of her son for over a year, without knowing that he died in an accident

The woman is over 80 years old and has heart problems. Her family decided that telling her the truth could be too much of a shock.

So they turned to a team of developers, gave them photos, videos, and voice recordings of the man in his native dialect, and received a realistic avatar that looks, speaks, and even moves almost like the real person.

Now this "son" talks to his mother every day via video call. She still tells him to dress warmly, eat well, and take care of himself, and the digital copy replies that he's working hard in another city, which is why he can't visit her. According to Zhang Zewei, the system's creator, the avatar even mimics the man's habit of leaning forward slightly while talking.

✏️ The story caused a strong reaction on social media. Some called the AI son a "white lie" and a way to comfort someone who couldn't bear such a loss. Others saw it as emotional deception that could cause even more pain if the truth is ever discovered.

What do you think? Is this a "lie for good"?

❤️ — Yes, it's okay
🔥 — No, she should know the truth
