Apart from the fact that Artificial Intelligence boosts creativity, its growing addiction is radically transforming daily lives.

It can adapt to users' behaviour through voice commands or display of emotions. These mechanical machines may outshine real pets with qualities like constant companionship, low maintenance, no allergy exposure or restrictions, and the benefit of improving mental health.

If these mechanical pets are designed to perform a monotonous set of tasks, will the investment reveal a notable amount of disinterest amongst its owners?
