AI-Generated Marilyn Monroe Chatbot Created can Have Extended Conversations With ‘Realistic Emotions’ and Expressions

62 years after the passing of Marilyn Monroe, she has been brought back to life as a “hyper-real” AI-generated digital avatar. This craziness is called Digital Marilyn and it was created by the company Soul Machines. They claim that people will be able to engage in a conversation with the late actress and that it will be able to answer questions “in Marilyn’s signature voice and style.”

It’s also explained that the AI interactive experience “shares anecdotes and even delivers personalized greetings, creating an unforgettable experience for Marilyn fans.” The Marilyn chatbot will let you interact “in real-time using advanced natural language processing, deep learning and GPT 3.5.”

Soul Machine’s proprietary camera and microphone technology says that Digital Marilyn will be able to read users’ emotions and respond accordingly. The company explained: “Every interaction is unique. Digital Marilyn analyzes your preferences and tailors her responses accordingly, fostering a genuine connection that resonates with you on an individual level.”

The average conversation length of a conversation that the AI will have with people averages around 20 minutes. They also reveal that the AI capabilities enable Digital Marilyn “to engage in natural, fluid dialogue, adapting to your questions and interests in real-time… Mimicking the human nervous system, this technology allows Digital Marilyn to respond with realistic emotions and nuanced expressions, creating a deeply personal and memorable experience.”

Soul Machines will unveiled Digital Marilyn at an invitation-only event at SXSW in Austin on Friday, March 8. According to Greg Cross, CEO and co-founder of Soul Machines, the point of this project is aimed at demonstrating “the transformative power of AI in connecting brands and consumers.”

Cross went on to say: “Digital Marilyn showcases our Biological AI, bringing an iconic personality to life through engaging dialogues and emotional intelligence. It’s more than nostalgia; it’s a glimpse into the future of immersive interactions.”

Dana Carpenter, EVP of entertainment at Authentic, said in a statement: “Marilyn Monroe remains a timeless icon, inspiring generations with her talent, charisma, and enduring legacy. We are thrilled to partner with Soul Machines, whose cutting-edge technology is the perfect match to bring Marilyn to life in the AI age. While Marilyn Monroe can never be replaced or duplicated, Digital Marilyn opens exciting possibilities for multiple generations of fans to engage with her in a whole new way, fostering a deeper connection and appreciation for her enduring spirit and the mark she left on the world.”

While a lot of people are against this kind of technology and using it in this way, AI is the future and there’s no stopping it. Things are just going to get more an more crazy until it ends up taking over the world.
