The neural network revived Steve Jobs. You can talk to him about anything

Developer John Mayer trained artificial intelligence to imitate the voice of Apple founder Steve Jobs.The result was impressive – the substitution is almost impossible to determine.

To make the conversation with Jobs meaningful, a neural network chat was connected to the same neural network, and all this was attached to the messenger.The user writes his question to Jobs in the messenger, and he sends a voice message in response.

An example of one of the conversations:

John Mayer: “Tell me in detail about what happened with Gizmodo and the iPhone, including how you feel about it.”

Steve Jobs Chatbot: “Well, John, it was a difficult situation for me and the company.We lost an iPhone 4 prototype and got it back at Gizmodo, after which we posted details about it online.We were upset, but it seems to me that in the end everything was resolved well – we went to court and resolved the issue in a legal plane.In general, smut happened, but it taught us a lot that we used in the future.

John Mayer periodically publishes recordings of his conversations with the virtual Steve Jobs.For some reason (probably ethical), he does not open access to this chatbot to everyone.
