Synthetic Humans: Digital Twins Living and Breathing Online

Synthetic humans, also known as artificial humans or androids, are digital beings created using artificial intelligence and technology designed to resemble and behave like humans in every way, including appearance, personality, and intelligence. With synthetic media on the rise, it is only a matter of time before synthetic humans take over the internet.

The concept of synthetic humans has been explored in science fiction for many years. It has gained interest in recent years as a booming industry with billions of dollars invested in the research of robots, synthetic humans, and AI. Synthetic humans can be used in different contexts, including video games as artificially intelligent non-playing characters (AI NPCs), as AI companions, particularly for those experiencing loneliness or suffering from dementia, and for branding purposes.
