Former CNN anchor Jim Acosta conducted an interview with an artificial intelligence recreation of Joaquin Oliver, a student who died in the 2018 Parkland school shooting. The interview, published on Acosta's Substack platform, featured a computer-generated replica of Oliver discussing topics including gun control legislation. The AI recreation was developed with input from Oliver's parents, who stated they created it to continue their son's advocacy work.
