32、t up two hours before my usual time. My alarm was set fbr 5:00 A.M. The first day I shut it off because I had placed it within arms reach.

41、le, even a nod. They look close to a human, but not quite.What lies beneath UneeQ9 s digital humans? Their 3D faces are modeled on actual human features. Speech recognition enables them to understand what a person is saying, and natural language processing is used to work out a response. Meanwhile,

42、another Al company, Soul Machines, is taking a more biological approach, with a digital brain, that imitates aspects of the human brain to adjust the emotions fblt and expressed by its digital people.Shiwali Mohan, an Al scientist at the Palo Research Center, is skeptical of these digital beings.

46、rther, enabling organizations and individuals to create digital humans themselves using free-access platforms they provide. The biggest motivation for such platforms is to popularize Al, Dube says.Mohan is cautious about this approach, yet she supports the purpose behind these digital beings and is

47、optimistic about where they are headed. As we develop more advanced Al technology, we would then have to use new ways of communicating with that technology,she says.

52、t culture with commercial products in a way that not many other things can; art generates money and holds significant emotional and cultural value within communities.
