Thoughts on this article about using AI for obituaries

2. That is not how an obituary is written

They are not meant to convey the feelings of the particular writer. They are meant to describe all of the loved ones that are impacted by the death.

In my case, my Father was survived by his wife, multiple siblings and multiple other offspring. It would have been incredibly inappropriate for me to express my specific personal feelings in particular just because I was the one writing it. It was first and foremost about him and secondly about every one of the people who loved him. I just happened to be the one that put it together.

Again, I think you are prescribing the wrong purpose to the obituary.
