PROJECT 5 - Artificial Companion
There are moments of time where we face emotional and mental issues that have us difficult to admit and face it directly. I wanted to create a mutual relationship between humans and Ai, a safe space to share among each other. Common Ai are scripted to be intelligent and careless, far from being emotional. But what if, the robots here are not flawless and perfect. They have issues , are emotional and have a backstory of their own.
Both Ai and you play the role of doctor to each other. Throughout the process of chatting, you learn how to share and receive no matter joy or sorrow that resonates with your own experience.
