The girl who passed away 2 years suddenly "revived" to sing happy birthday to her mother, saying a sentence full of sadness

After 2 years of living in pain of losing their child, the couple can now "see" their only daughter again with the help of artificial intelligence. The image of a girl with a beautiful appearance singing happy birthday to her mother made many people choked up.

According to Hangzhou Daily, using AI services to "reunite" deceased relatives is becoming more and more popular in China. People are willing to spend from 5,000 (more than 17 million VND) to 10,000 yuan (more than 34 million VND) for services that recreate the image of the deceased.

In 2021, Tino Bao and his wife, a famous musician in Taiwan (China), experienced great pain when their daughter Bao Rong passed away after 2 years of fighting a rare blood disease.

Tino Bao and his wife did not speak to each other for half a year after their daughter's death because they were afraid they might say something that would upset or hurt each other.

After 2 years of living in pain of losing their child, they can now "see" their only daughter again with the help of artificial intelligence (AI). "Digital daughter" becomes a bridge for the couple to connect with each other and return to normal life.

Recently, musician Tino Bao posted a video clip in which the AI version of his daughter sang happy birthday to her mother in Mandarin and said, "I miss you, mom."

The 56-year-old musician shared with Future City media channel that he and his wife kept many photos of Bao Rong, so it was not difficult to recreate their daughter's image. However, reproducing her voice took a lot of effort.

The AI technology development team collaborating with him simulated Bao Rong's voice from the 3 English sentences she said when making a video call to her mother. The explosion of AI technology after the launch of OpenAI's Chat GPT chatbot helped them separate her voice from environmental noise.

Recreating his daughter's voice means a lot to Tino Bao because the treatment process left his daughter unable to speak in the final stages of her life.

As someone with a lot of experience in the music industry, Bao worked hard to perfect the quality of his daughter's voice in the AI-generated clip. Before that, there was a time when his wife accidentally heard him setting the sound for his daughter and asked: "Why does that voice sound so much like Bao Rong?". He replied: "Because that is Bao Rong."

"AI is a tool we use to express our love for our daughters," Bao said. Because he loved his child so much, after his child passed away, this musician grew his hair long because Rong loved touching it.

Tino Bao said he considered ethical issues when using AI technology to create a virtual version that was not identical to his daughter. He was worried that it might ruin the beautiful image of his daughter in the couple's memories. However, in the end he decided to continue so that his daughter "can live forever in the digital world".

This is not the first time a digital version of a deceased person has been created to comfort the family. In January, Super Brain company revealed to Hongxing News that it had "revived" deceased relatives using AI for more than 600 families in the previous 7 months. More than half of the customers using this service are parents of young people who have passed away.

The story has attracted the attention of the Chinese social network community. Many people are excited and supportive of this new technology and think that it really has a healing effect for those who have unfortunately lost loved ones. However, there are also other opinions expressed: "Will just pretending that no one has died will ease their pain?" or "Is this really good? I think people have to try to move on with their lives without their lost loved ones."
