Girl Makes Deepfake of Dead Grandpa for Her Mom's Birthday, Mom is Horrified

Remember when Kanye reanimated the late Robert Kardashian into a creepy holographic deepfake for Kim's birthday? Sure, she feigned gratitude at the time, but they're divorced now. Just saying.

For people who have never lost a loved one, reanimating a deceased relative might seem like a cool idea. But for those who have gone through the pain and grief of loss, the experience of seeing an uncanny copy of someone they love and will never see again might be pretty traumatic. Redditor u/ThrowRAFamilyPhoto recounted what happened when her sister tried to pull a Kanye and deepfaked their mother's dead dad as a birthday gift. It didn't go well. May this thread be a lesson to anyone thinking about experimenting with some cheap deepfake software.
