How This AI Memory App Is Helping Us Preserve the Stories & Memories of Our Loved Ones
Description
What started as morning text prompts to her mother became an AI platform preserving family memories before it's too late. In this episode of Lead with AI, host Dr. Tamara Nall interviews Kimberly Carson, former IBM Watson researcher and founder of Ancestral Echoes, and explains how sensory questions like "What did Sunday morning smell like in your childhood?" unlock stories that heal rather than just create nostalgia. A beta tester who lost her mother unexpectedly found voice memos that felt like letters her mom left behind without knowing. Carson reveals how AI organizes these memories into multi-modal capsules that preserve voice, tone, and cultural context, creating living archives for future generations. This isn't about recreating voices or faking memories. It's about making space for stories that matter while the people who lived them are still here to share.
