Deep Nostalgia (A Haunting Tale of Love, Loss, and Digital Grief)

In this deeply moving story from "Influenced," we follow Henry, a 78-year-old widower who purchases a Memoria device—an AI hologram that recreates his late wife Margaret using decades of photos, videos, and personal data. What begins as a technological miracle slowly reveals itself as something far more unsettling: a perfect companion who lacks the very imperfections that made his wife real.

A profound meditation on grief, memory, and what makes us irreplaceably human in an age of artificial companionship.
