Meta's CTO Patented The Idea Of Keeping You Posting On Facebook After You Die
Meta CTO Andrew Garrod Bosworth aka “Boztank” is the “inventor” on a patent first reported by Business Insider.

And the abstract:
“A social networking system simulates a user using a language model trained using training data generated from user interactions performed by that user. The language model may be used for simulating the user when the user is absent from the social networking system, for example, when the user takes a long break or if the user is deceased.”
