据《扬子晚报》10日报道， UP主@吴伍六是一位上海的00后视觉设计师。上个月，他在B站发布了这段视频。视频中，他演示了自己是如何用AI工具生成了奶奶的虚拟数字人，并和她进行了“对话”。
WuWuliu, a visual designer based in Shanghai, recently stirred significant controversy online when he used artificial intelligence to “resurrect” his late grandmother and engaged in a conversation with her, as reported by yangtse.com on Monday.
Wu came up with the idea to “bring her back” by mimicking his late grandmother’s appearance, voice, personality, and memories through AI applications.
视频里，虚拟“奶奶”讲着湖北方言，头发花白，脸上的皱纹清晰可见，可以说是惟妙惟肖。配上唠家常一般的聊天内容，效果宛如真的在视频通话。
比如，当UP主问“奶奶”，生前和他爸打电话说了些什么，这位虚拟“奶奶”对答如流：“我和他说，别喝酒，要节约，别打牌”。

当UP主问“奶奶”，过年的东西买了吗？“奶奶”立刻用家乡话开心地回答：“买了两壶油，私人榨得很香啊，75元一壶……”

The “grandmother” can blink, nod, and even laugh heartily. When Wu asked her if she had prepared holiday goods for the Spring Festival, she responded in dialect: “I bought two bottles of cooking oil and they smell good.” When Wu inquired about what she said to his father when she was alive, she replied: “I told him not to drink too much, save money, and stop gambling.”
视频的后半段是UP主的“自言自语”，他告诉“奶奶”，自己最近升职加薪了，不用担心自己，还提醒“奶奶”不要总是穿打补丁的衣服，不要着凉。每说一句话，“奶奶”似乎都在仔细聆听，或是点头、或是眨眼。

UP主在视频中介绍，虚拟“奶奶”这些“回复”的文本，是他借助时下大热的人工智能工具ChatGPT生成的。
他告诉ChatGPT，“我很想我的奶奶，你能不能模仿她的口吻来和我交谈？”，并通过对奶奶的详细描述，让ChatGPT的回复更像他的奶奶。

而奶奶的形象，则是UP主用人工智能绘画工具生成的。

此外，他还把过去奶奶的电话音频上传给了AI工具，再通过音频编辑软件、语音合成系统等，合成了虚拟“奶奶”的声音。

最后，UP主用虚拟数字人生成工具，将图像、音频、文本整合，生成了视频中的虚拟数字人“奶奶”。

He inputseveral photos of his grandmother into the programs to create a lifelike avatar and uploaded her verbal messages to simulate her voice and accent. Finally, he turned the AI-generated language into conversations that might happen between him and his grandmother.
网友意见不一
视频发布后立刻大热，在B站至今已有超67万播放量，上万网友点赞。不过，评论区网友却吵翻了……
Following the release of the video, it quickly gained popularity on Bilibili, accumulating over 670,000 views and receiving thousands of likes from netizens. However, the comments section was filled with heated debates.
有网友表示，看完视频很感动，想起了自己逝去的亲人，认为这样做能寄托哀思，很有意义。
Some netizens said that they were deeply moved by the video, as it reminded them of their own deceased loved ones. They believe that such actions help to convey their grief and are meaningful.
不过，也有不少网友表示无法接受UP主的做法，认为这是“对生命的亵渎”，UP主“复活”的只是自己的执念。
On the other hand, many netizens could not accept Wu’s approach, claiming it to be “disrespectful of life” and that it only reflects one’s own obsessions.
有人认为，虚拟数字人这类技术应该被禁止，因为可能会导致“存在主义危机”，“随便拍一个陌生人的照片当成电子宠物养的感觉”。
Some argued that technology like this should be banned, as it may lead to an “existential crisis”.
还有人担心，骗子会利用这种AI技术诈骗。
There were also concerns that scammers might take advantage of AI technology for fraudulent purposes.
UP主：只是填补自己的遗憾
看到网友的激烈讨论，UP主@吴伍六在评论区发文，解释了自己制作这段视频的初衷：只是想用AI技术填补与奶奶没有好好告别的遗憾。“希望大家能通过AI的发展，看到未来的多样性”。他还表示，希望大家珍惜当下，现实的陪伴永远是最重要的。
在《扬子晚报》的采访中，UP主@吴伍六告诉记者，自己从小由奶奶带大，与奶奶的感情很深，“以前我遇到事都会和奶奶说，现在我也不知道和谁说了。”
而他决定用AI“复活”奶奶，是因为不能接受奶奶的突然离去，“就短短的半个月时间，头几天还在和奶奶聊未来，过几天奶奶就只能简单交流了，后几天就被推进ICU见不到了，最后奶奶就成了盒子里的一把灰了……”
Wu said in an interview that he posted the video to honor his grandmother, who died in January. He said his grandmother brought him up as a child and they had a close relationship, adding he was only able to exchange a few simple words with her during her last days and can’t cope with the loss.
他表示，这一切来得太突然，相当长一段时间内，自己都不相信奶奶已经离开。
因为平时正好从事AI相关的工作，因此想到了用AI“复活”奶奶。但他知道，自己做的这件事只能给自己一个心理安慰，屏幕前的所呈现出来的始终是一个虚幻的影像，“但怎么说呢，只要是能再看一看奶奶，再说几句话也是好的。”
By “talking” with her, Wu said he could ease the pain of his loss, adding he knew it was a comfortable illusion.
心理学家：重要的是珍惜现在
据《扬子晚报》报道，国家二级心理咨询师陈志林表示：“从心理学角度讲，比起传统的遗照、遗物等物品，AI技术能够利用高科技的手段将离世亲人的音容笑貌更好地保留下来，让受丧亲之疼的人得到慰藉。不仅可以疗愈哀伤者，还可以让离去的人以更立体的方式被‘保存’下来。”
“From a psychological perspective, compared to traditional items such as photographs and personal belongings, AI technology can better preserve the image and personality of deceased loved ones, providing comfort to those who are grieving,” said Chen Zhilin, a psychological counselor.
陈志林表示，亲人离去带来的创伤是不可避免的，有人甚至会因此产生抑郁、焦虑，但这种创伤会随着时间减轻，一般不超过六个月。AI能在人们最痛苦的时候给予一定慰藉，可以缓解亲人逝去带来的痛苦。但必须强调的是，要避免对其过度依赖。许多AI“复活”案例都是为了弥补遗憾，但这个弥补也只能是生者的自我安慰，“更重要的是，我们要懂得珍惜现在……”
“However, over-reliance on it should be avoided. More importantly, we must learn to cherish the present,” Chen said.
