Stories Revisited: Spirits and AI
A hot topic right now is the ethics of AI generated images and audio. What these programs are able to mimic can be scarily accurate. But this type of trickery has been going on for a long time…by spirits. People all over the world have been reporting seeing or hearing family or friends in places they actually weren’t. Spirits have already been doing what we fear AI will do in the future. So for this week’s bonus episode, I wanted to share true stories from real people who have been targets of a spirit mimicking someone they knew, just to show you how common this phenomenon is.  [This episode originally aired on July 9, 2024] Ch 1: The Wolf, submitted by Kenzi. A community in St Lucia is haunted by a mysterious wolf. Ch 2: Second Dad, submitted by Chloe. A girl thought she was being tucked into bed by her father. Ch 3: It keeps imitating my family, submitted by Dan G. A kid witnessed an entity mimic the members of his family. Ch 4: The Tah-tah-kle-ahs, submitted by Squeam. A person had a close call with shapeshifting creatures at camp. Don't forget to vote in the poll which story you think was recorded with AI!
