ABSTRACT
Virtual human is the simulation of human under the synthesis of virtual reality, artificial intelligence, and other technologies. Modern virtual human technology simulates both the external characteristics and the internal emotions and personality of humans. The relationship between virtual human and human is a concrete expression of the modern symbiotic relationship between human and machine. This human-machine symbiosis can either be a fusion of the virtual human and the human or it can cause a split in the human itself.
KEYWORDS
