What if memory didn’t just live on — what if it could speak?In this thought-provoking episode of The Ryan Files, Ryan sits down with Miles Spencer, founder of Reflekt.ai, a company building interactive AI “reflections” that allow families to have real conversations with loved ones — even after they’re gone.Using voice samples, photos, timelines, and deeply personal stories, Reflekt creates dynamic digital legacies capable of spontaneous conversation. Ryan even speaks directly with Arthur — Miles’ father — who passed away years ago.Is this honoring legacy…or redefining death itself?Topics explored in this episode:• How AI recreates a loved one’s voice and personality• The ethics and guardrails behind digital legacy technology• Can reflections evolve over time?• Does this delay grief — or support it?• Is this digital immortality… or something deeper?• What happens when AI becomes better at being us than we are?This conversation goes far beyond technology. It wrestles with memory, consciousness, spirit, and what it truly means to “outlive yourself.”Would you create a reflection?Would you talk to one?Watch full video episodes on YouTube:youtube.com/@theryanfilesVisit:theryanfiles.comSupport exclusive Aftermath conversations:patreon.com/theryanfilesSocials:facebook.com/theryanfilesx.com/RPfilestiktok.com/@the.ryan.files.official
