Artificial intelligence (AI) is the simulation of human intelligence processes by
machines, especially computer systems - Google

When we think of a human being, what is the first thought to pop in our minds? Is it the  ability to communicate amongst each other in different languages across the globe?

Is it the way we show emotions and react to those emotions accordingly? Or is it the  way we are physically made including all the parts that make our unique selves, us.  Now what if I told you that we lived in a world where a non-birthed being could do  the same? What if your therapist was a robot who could help diagnose you and treat your depression, you built your own girlfriend who you now know on a personal level and you come home to a virtual friend who asks you how your day was. This might seem like some Ashley-O Black Mirror shit, but the newest advances of AI in relation to human interaction are very real and showing no signs of turning back.

Here at Artifici(Al)ove we are going to explore how AI is helping us, harming us and just plain weirding us out in today’s social climate. From robots preforming heart surgery, to the first ever AI sex doll brothel, we are here to share our curiosity and  opinions with the world. Our societal norms are ever changing, and the traditional  definition of human interaction is being blurred. It’s time to expand our minds, open  our arms and be “human”.
