Avengers Tony Stark 'still ALIVE' in his AI tech: Did this Spider-Man 2 scene prove it?

If there’s anyone who always likes to have the last word, it’s this guy. Nobody can argue he’s earned it after his heartbreaking almost death at the end of Infinity War, another close call at the start of Endgame and then the truly devastating finale to Endgame. But is this really the end for Tony Stark? The comic books already have a clear way for him to live on. Did we already see the first example in Spider-Man 2 and not even realise it? The whole film hinged on not believing what you see, while secrets lay hidden in plain sight.

A theory exploded across the internet this week, pointing out Tony could have backed up an AI version of himself. 

It argues there is proof in the haunting memorial scene: “When [the] hologram was about to end we saw that Tony stood up from his chair and came towards Morgan and made eye contact with [her] and said ‘I love you 3000’.

“So the suspicious part about this scene is that if it was a prerecorded hologram how would Tony know that Morgan would be sitting on the sofa when Pepper and Morgan would be watching the hologram? 

“And also how would he know the location from where the hologram was getting projected? Not just the location but how would a 3D hologram make eye contact with a human. How would Tony know the locations before recording?”

The remarkable Reddit fan theory mentions how in the comics an AI of Tony Stark was created by himself as a backup. In the comics he’s in a coma, so his AI is used by Ironheart, the black female Iron Man aka Riri Williams, in her suit.

We have also seen plenty of uses of Tony’s remarkable AI and computer interface systems throughout the many Marvel movies.

Let’s not forget JARVIS. And then in Spider-Man Far From Home we were introduced to EDITH.

Fans and Peter Parker himself were moved when the acronym was revealed to mean Even Dead I’m The Hero. But what if Tony really is EDITH? After all, the acronym includes the words ‘I am’. Even the glasses are an uncanny reminder of Tony’s look.

And let’s not forget, the person to whom he entrusts EDITH is his spiritual heir. Tony always promised to look after Peter and now he can be right there. 

If anyone could discover how to download some form of their consciousness or personality algorithms into an AI it would be Tony.

Imagine if he is still in there somewhere looking over and after everything.
