virtual humans
 

Not my project, but my co-workers did this installation at the Museum of Science, Boston:

Sci-Tech: Virtual humans | NECN

I just did a rap video bit for another vHuman of ours, but that is another story...

All your human belong to us. :)

Hmmm...pretty soon you will not need any actors - imagine having politicians and business leaders being virtual? How about coaches, doctors and lawyers?

There is a great sci-fi book in there someplace...

If you are going to start making Maria Sharapova clones, I'd like to put my name down for a couple.

The only technologies that will make it are those that can satisfy sexual desires.

or contribute to laziness...

We actually have virtual patients that are used to train med students (mostly psych clinicians). We also use them for practicing bi-lateral negotiations and have used them in cultural training as well. Still a log of issues to work out, but for training they have the prospect of saving a lot of money.

I'm more interested in having a virtual job.

Only if you don't get a virtual paycheck.
