Videos circulating on social media show the moment that the band Calcinha Preta paid homage to former singer Paulinha Abelha, who died in February 2022, during the recording of the DVD “Atemporal”, in Salvador, on Thursday (7). (See video below).
The group used artificial intelligence to project a hologram of the singer on stage, using her voice to leave a message for fans.
“I wanted to be here singing at the recording of our first DVD, but today you will be my voice”, he says.

People are weighing their hand on AI, see
They had Paulinha bee speaking there, it got a little macabre
They could have just left images of her in life playing in the background.— Balbrundiano (@balbrundiano) December 8, 2023
I know there are people who liked it, but I think it’s so wrong for you to take the image of someone who died and create something using AI, even if it’s as a tribute.
It was very strange to see Paulinha Abelha AI’s video.— Tamaria | We are stronger together (@tasandoval_) December 8, 2023
See the limits of using images of people killed by Artificial Intelligence.
Paulinha Abelha died on February 23, 2022 due to an infection in the nervous system.
