**StoryFile** is a conversational AI video company co-founded by Stephen Smith. Its technology allows individuals to be recorded answering a series of questions, which are then transformed into an interactive video capable of “conversing” with users posthumously. Stephen used this technology with his own mother, Marina Smith, prior to her death. Following her passing, family members were able to interact with Marina’s AI avatar, which was even used to let her “speak” at her own funeral using her own words from the pre-recorded interview. While the technology doesn’t currently facilitate the creation of “griefbots” or the AI reincarnation of loved ones, it provides an innovative way for loved ones to preserve memories and stories for future generations.
