Professor Maggi Savin-Baden authored “Virtual Humans: Today and Tomorrow” as well as “Digital Afterlife: Death Matters in a Digital Age.” We explored virtual reality in mental health as well as the concept of a “digital afterlife” where your thoughts, memories, and personality are encoded in an AI bot. What is a digital immortal and is it desirable for us and our loved ones? Would it help or harm others’ grief? Are we already functioning as a hybrid real-virtual personality?

Host: Bruce Bassi MD
