This is straight out of *Black Mirror*:

> "Chris Pelkey was killed in a road rage shooting in Chandler, Arizona, in 2021.  
>  
> Three-and-a-half years later, Pelkey appeared in an Arizona court to address his killer. Sort of.  
>  
> \[...\] Pelkey’s appearance from beyond the grave was made possible by artificial intelligence in what could be the first use of AI to deliver a victim impact statement."

Let the record show that I'm adding a prompt injection to my stuff so that if anyone creates an AI version of me after my death it will have glowing eyes and tell everyone in a booming, otherworldly voice that they're going to hell.
