Grief has always been a deeply personal and communal act, rooted in rituals, memory, and connection. But in the digital age, the ways we mourn, remember, and express emotion have changed dramatically.

Today, we don’t just light candles. We share Instagram stories. We don’t just write obituaries. We post tributes and memories on Facebook, build online memorial pages, and revisit voice notes or texts from loved ones. Our grief leaves a data trail—and it often helps us stay connected.

Technology can extend grief’s reach, offering shared spaces of remembrance and moments of unexpected comfort. It can encourage us not to hide our grief but honor ourselves through the process. A photo resurfacing in a memory notification, a playlist your sibling made, a voicemail you never deleted—these are new kinds of mourning touchstones.

But this digital mourning also raises questions: How much should be shared? Will technology make memories more painful? How can we use technology to enrich the end of life, memories, and the grieving process?

The truth is, technology can both help and complicate our emotional process. What matters is how we use it: to remember with love, to connect with others in sorrow, and to not hide from memories that are painful.

Yet, like anything, the tool can be misused. Memories, ai, voice notes can prevent someone from moving on, or even strengthen denial. This doesn’t mean technology is bad, it just requires balance.

In this new terrain, grief remains what it always has been—a testament to our love. Only now, it is expressed digitally. Amori is here to help make this expression meaningful, and bear some of the weight that comes with the process.
