Persona-fication or: Falling in Love with a Bot
This document discusses the possibility of humans forming emotional connections and relationships with bots or artificial intelligence. It outlines how bots have taken on roles like personal assistants, navigators, and entertainers. While bots are not yet emotionally sophisticated, some argue that kids have formed attachments to toys like Tamagotchis. As technology advances, humans risk being constantly distracted and presenting fabricated online personas, so connecting with bots may become more appealing. Ultimately, developing human connection through technology could represent a major shift, but it remains uncertain how relationships with artificial intelligence will evolve.
