Facebook to use AI to stop telling users to say hi to dead friends

Algorithmic features have sent suggestions to wish happy birthday to those who've died

The site's freshly emotionally intelligent AI is part of a rash of changes to how Facebook handles "memorialised" accounts - pages whose owner has been reported deceased, but that are kept on the social network in their memory.
