The voyage commences with a poignant gathering where family and friends contribute cherished memories, heartfelt letters, poignant videos, and endearing anecdotes, collectively shaping the AI to mirror the person's unique spirit. Upon completion, the avatar rests in digital limbo, awaiting its purpose after the passing of the couple's beloved member. The surviving partner, armed with the support of a psychologist, then faces the poignant decision: to engage with their digital companion or to let it remain untouched.
