The AI moralises on the importance that not everyone gets to be old and then forgives the man who killed him. Fuck that garbage.
Since you know it was the wife who pushed for it.

That should never be allowed in court. What a crock of shit.

It was a victim impact statement, not subject to the rules of evidence. The guy had already been found guilty, and this was an impact statement to sway how the shooter should be sentenced. The victim’s bill of rights says that victims should be allowed to choose the method in which they make an impact statement, and his wife chose the AI video.
I agree that it shouldn’t be admissible as evidence. But that’s not really the case here, because it wasn’t being used as evidence. The shooter was already found guilty.
