Abstract

The essay wants to analyze the epistemological revolution and the ethical questions that arise from increasing diffusion of AI, and especially their impact on new generation that grow up with virtual assistants or social robot, interacting through voice and actions. These new entities, neither human, nor animals, or objects, represent a new hybrid ontological category. Thus what kind of relationship is possible with these artifacts? Is this going to be a kind of dominion such as master-servant or, on the contrary, an anthropomorphisation of machine that will put on the same level human and artifacts?
