alt Hacker NewsWhen you put it that way it reminds me of the Severn/Keats character in the Hyperion Cantos. Far-future AIs reconstruct historical figures from their writings in an attempt to gain philosophical insights.

This isn’t science fiction anymore. CIA is using chatbot simulations of world leaders to inform analysts. https://archive.ph/9KxkJ

This is such a ridiculously good series. If you haven't read it yet, I thoroughly recommend it.
The Hyperion Cantos is such an incredible work of fiction. Currently re-reading and am midway through the fourth book The Rise Of Endymion; this series captivates my imagination and would often find myself idly reflecting on it and the characters within more than a decade after reading. Like all works, it has its shortcomings, but I can give no higher recommendation than the first two books.
