We now live in an age of rapid techo-consumption and mass communication, where the chief product that is currently available is ourselves — or, at least, some digitally produced fantasy of our lives and image. We are a never-ending supply of pleasure that adapts as needed, on demand. If we don’t update our version or prove to be superficially interesting enough, we can be turned off or unfollowed with a simple click. Forgotten. This alienation from one another that we are experiencing due to technologies that are so culturally pervasive, is a sort of conditioning, transforming our behaviors to be more machine-like and in doing so they bring about the inevitability of human-robot relations. Yet this is nothing new, not strictly a 21st-century affliction, but the growing result of a relationship between economic systems and technology and how their partnership advances our inevitable march towards robo-love.
