But that’s just one example of what this account posted…

This TikTok recreates in virtual reality many deceased personalities around the world, including John Lennon, George Floyd, Johnny Hallyday or Diego Maradona. As far as Quebec is concerned, the account also reincarnated the martyred little girl from Granby, whose father has just been denied parole. They tell the story of their death as if they were still alive.

On July 31, 2007, Cédrika Provencher was kidnapped in Mauricie. The event plunged Quebec into a frantic race to find her. It took eight long years before his bones were finally identified along a service road to Highway 40. Despite the discovery, the mystery of what really happened to him remains, even today, intact.

Fifteen years after the disappearance of his granddaughter Cédrika, it was in “the hope of helping” that Henri Provencher made the decision to publish an autobiographical book relating the events that followed.

The video d’Living Stories has been viewed over a million times in just two days on TikTok.

artificial intelligence and ethics

This kind of video can raise eyebrows, at a time when Quebec is questioning the ethical use of AI. The Quebec Artificial Intelligence Institute (MILA) was awarded $21 million in mid-April by the Legault government so that it continues to develop its university research network in addition to emphasizing training in AI to attract talent to Quebec.

This was announced by the Minister of Economy, Innovation and Energy, Pierre Fitzgibbon, who maintains that “the development of responsible AI is essential to ensure its acceptability and its integration into companies. .”

But what is responsible AI? And if we push the note even further: what is an ethical AI?

These include knowing “how the model will serve and that takes into account, for example, the biases […]uses and how it could positively or negatively affect people’s lives”, has already explained the president and chief executive officer of MILA, Valerie Pisano, in an interview with the antenna chief Marie-Christine Bergeron, to the bulletin Noovo the wire 17.

TO SEE | What is ethical AI?

This spring, several well-known personalities in the world of technology, such as Elon Musk, president and CEO of SpaceX, Tesla and Twitter, as well as Steve Wozniak, the co-founder of Apple, launched an appeal to curb the development of AI systems.

This call takes the form ofan open letter totaling more than 1000 signatures entrepreneurs and academics in technological development, in particular the founder of Mila and professor at the University of Montreal, Yoshua Bengio, but also citizens who feel concerned by this issue.
