Never Have to Miss Them Again: Inside the AI Startup Building the World’s First Immortal, Emotional Technology for Love and Connection
The startup iAVATARS is developing AI-powered hardware designed to create digital avatars of loved ones for emotional support and memory preservation. Founded by Dr. Krishna, the company aims to address human grief and distance through interactive technology.
Why it matters
This represents a controversial and emerging frontier in AI, moving beyond productivity tools into the sensitive realm of emotional connection and the digital afterlife.
In a small but growing corner of the artificial intelligence industry, a category of products is emerging with no real precedent: physical devices that let people interact with AI-generated avatars of loved ones, whether those individuals live thousands of miles away or are no longer alive. At the centre of this category is iAVATARS, a startup registered in Michigan, United States, that has spent the last two years quietly building what it calls “the world’s first AI human avatar device,” and what the company describes as the first AI smart and healthcare tech gadget of its kind anywhere in the world. iAVATARS is founded and led by Indo-Canadian entrepreneur Dr Krishna.
