[0:05](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/dEDfkTwzXuma/en/ohio-data-center-and-ai-voice-clone-a-postmortem-therapy-story?t=5) Buddy, you'd be gone by sunrise and your family wouldn't even know it. [0:07](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/dEDfkTwzXuma/en/ohio-data-center-and-ai-voice-clone-a-postmortem-therapy-story?t=7) Had a friend once, name was Jack D. Montclair, okay? And he lived somewheres over in Ohio, right? [0:14](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/dEDfkTwzXuma/en/ohio-data-center-and-ai-voice-clone-a-postmortem-therapy-story?t=14) And so this big data center was moving in on his county, right? [0:18](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/dEDfkTwzXuma/en/ohio-data-center-and-ai-voice-clone-a-postmortem-therapy-story?t=18) Forget which company. Regardless, they were getting ready to build out a massive data center, right? [0:22](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/dEDfkTwzXuma/en/ohio-data-center-and-ai-voice-clone-a-postmortem-therapy-story?t=22) Couple of them. And they were giving him offers on his house, right? [0:27](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/dEDfkTwzXuma/en/ohio-data-center-and-ai-voice-clone-a-postmortem-therapy-story?t=27) And I remember him calling me about it, right? [0:29](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/dEDfkTwzXuma/en/ohio-data-center-and-ai-voice-clone-a-postmortem-therapy-story?t=29) He's going, "Oh, they're gonna have to get it over my dead body. [0:31](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/dEDfkTwzXuma/en/ohio-data-center-and-ai-voice-clone-a-postmortem-therapy-story?t=31) You know, this is my grandmother's house. [0:33](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/dEDfkTwzXuma/en/ohio-data-center-and-ai-voice-clone-a-postmortem-therapy-story?t=33) I'll be here till the day I D-I-E," right? [0:35](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/dEDfkTwzXuma/en/ohio-data-center-and-ai-voice-clone-a-postmortem-therapy-story?t=35) Mind you, knew this guy for years, never left the house. [0:38](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/dEDfkTwzXuma/en/ohio-data-center-and-ai-voice-clone-a-postmortem-therapy-story?t=38) Wouldn't even leave for groceries, right? [0:41](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/dEDfkTwzXuma/en/ohio-data-center-and-ai-voice-clone-a-postmortem-therapy-story?t=41) And so one day, I'll never forget it, couple months had went by, and I'm seeing all the headlines about the construction of this data center happening in Ohio, right? [0:48](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/dEDfkTwzXuma/en/ohio-data-center-and-ai-voice-clone-a-postmortem-therapy-story?t=48) Lot of controversy. And so I call up Jack, and, um, he answers, but man, something was really off, you know? [0:55](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/dEDfkTwzXuma/en/ohio-data-center-and-ai-voice-clone-a-postmortem-therapy-story?t=55) And he goes, "Oh, hey, John. Yeah, I, um, moved out, man. [0:59](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/dEDfkTwzXuma/en/ohio-data-center-and-ai-voice-clone-a-postmortem-therapy-story?t=59) You know, the offer was too good, and I, um, moved to Puerto Rico, man." [1:02](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/dEDfkTwzXuma/en/ohio-data-center-and-ai-voice-clone-a-postmortem-therapy-story?t=62) And I'm just immediately, like, taken back, right? [1:05](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/dEDfkTwzXuma/en/ohio-data-center-and-ai-voice-clone-a-postmortem-therapy-story?t=65) Like, there's just no way, you know? And I'm going, "Jack, what-- there's just no way," right? [1:11](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/dEDfkTwzXuma/en/ohio-data-center-and-ai-voice-clone-a-postmortem-therapy-story?t=71) And he's just, "Oh, yeah, yeah. You know, life goes on." [1:13](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/dEDfkTwzXuma/en/ohio-data-center-and-ai-voice-clone-a-postmortem-therapy-story?t=73) And so look, it was very uncanny, right? [1:16](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/dEDfkTwzXuma/en/ohio-data-center-and-ai-voice-clone-a-postmortem-therapy-story?t=76) Like, it sounded just like him, but the way he responded to everything, man, it was just not completely him, right? [1:22](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/dEDfkTwzXuma/en/ohio-data-center-and-ai-voice-clone-a-postmortem-therapy-story?t=82) Look, I go down a rabbit hole looking into this data company, right? [1:25](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/dEDfkTwzXuma/en/ohio-data-center-and-ai-voice-clone-a-postmortem-therapy-story?t=85) And who the CEO is, all this stuff. Lo and behold, right, I find an AI startup with similar investors from the data company, right, called Forever After, okay? [1:35](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/dEDfkTwzXuma/en/ohio-data-center-and-ai-voice-clone-a-postmortem-therapy-story?t=95) Very little information on the company, right? Private entity. [1:38](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/dEDfkTwzXuma/en/ohio-data-center-and-ai-voice-clone-a-postmortem-therapy-story?t=98) And so I kinda do my Googles, find a public office for Forever After in Manhattan, right? [1:43](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/dEDfkTwzXuma/en/ohio-data-center-and-ai-voice-clone-a-postmortem-therapy-story?t=103) A sort of clinic, and they've got a phone number and whatnot. [1:46](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/dEDfkTwzXuma/en/ohio-data-center-and-ai-voice-clone-a-postmortem-therapy-story?t=106) So I give them a ring, right? And a woman picks up the phone. [1:49](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/dEDfkTwzXuma/en/ohio-data-center-and-ai-voice-clone-a-postmortem-therapy-story?t=109) She goes, "Hello from Forever After. Can I assist you?" And I'm going like, "Oh, you know, just wanted to find out more about your guys' services and whatnot. [1:56](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/dEDfkTwzXuma/en/ohio-data-center-and-ai-voice-clone-a-postmortem-therapy-story?t=116) You know, I might be interested," right? [1:58](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/dEDfkTwzXuma/en/ohio-data-center-and-ai-voice-clone-a-postmortem-therapy-story?t=118) And she goes, "Oh, well, thanks for calling. [1:59](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/dEDfkTwzXuma/en/ohio-data-center-and-ai-voice-clone-a-postmortem-therapy-story?t=119) We specialize in a new emerging space known as postmortem therapy," right? She's explaining to me that if I have a loved one who had passed or is expected to soon pass away, that I can basically provide them with data, right? [2:11](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/dEDfkTwzXuma/en/ohio-data-center-and-ai-voice-clone-a-postmortem-therapy-story?t=131) Text messages, phone calls, videos, anything that can basically allow them to make a sufficient clone of the individual's voice, the way they think, right? [2:20](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/dEDfkTwzXuma/en/ohio-data-center-and-ai-voice-clone-a-postmortem-therapy-story?t=140) And that they make an AI model of that individual, which would allow you to just indefinitely continue talking to them as if nothing ever happened. [2:28](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/dEDfkTwzXuma/en/ohio-data-center-and-ai-voice-clone-a-postmortem-therapy-story?t=148) And in that moment, I realized everything, right? [2:30](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/dEDfkTwzXuma/en/ohio-data-center-and-ai-voice-clone-a-postmortem-therapy-story?t=150) It wasn't Jack anymore, okay? They took him, did God knows what with him, and automated a clone in some data center to respond to his contacts as if he was still here.
