A friend of mine lost his father last year and got asked to give the eulogy, something he'd never done before and had no idea how to start, on top of everything else he was already carrying that week.
He told an AI chatbot the real stories he wanted to include — his dad's terrible fishing jokes, the way he showed up early to everything, a specific memory from a road trip — and asked for help shaping them into something that flowed instead of reading like a list of facts.
It helped him organize the stories in an order that built instead of jumped around, and suggested a few transition lines that tied the memories together without sounding like a form letter. It didn't write his father's life for him, it just helped him put the pieces he already had in an order he could actually stand up and read.
He rewrote several lines in his own voice before the service, since a eulogy has to sound like the person giving it, not like a stranger's summary. But having a structure to work from instead of a blank page during one of the hardest weeks of his life made a real difference.
Writing about someone you loved is never going to be easy, and no tool changes that. But getting unstuck on the structure so you can focus on saying what you actually mean is a small kindness worth having.
If you want the slow, no-jargon version of all this — the stuff I wish someone had handed me before I fumbled through it myself — that's exactly what I built On Ramp AI for. Check it out here.
