Jim Acosta interviewed an AI-generated avatar of Joaquin Oliver, a victim of the Parkland shooting, on his 25th birthday. Created by Oliver's parents, the AI offered insights on gun violence, advocating for stronger gun control, mental health support, and community engagement. Oliver's father, Manuel, explained the project's aim is to keep his son's legacy alive and amplify his voice in gun control advocacy, not to replace him. The interview highlights the evolving use of AI to address social issues and remember victims of tragedy.
