Freudian Research Seminar – The Dead That Answer Back: Conversational AI, Mourning and the Production of Posthumous Presence

, Freud Museum London

Ilaria Iacconi Iambrenghi asks what changes when the dead stop leaving only traces and appear to answer. The paper treats conversational systems as an apparatus for mourning, and develops the idea of a dialogic inheritance made of corrections, refusals and habits of thought rather than stored information. Its claim is not that the dead are simulated, but that loss becomes interactive. For clinicians meeting grief shaped by these tools.
