In the awwwards annual of 2018, we conceived the cunning idea of having a chatbot write our foreword (°◊°). Way back then (just four years ago) these artifacts were so rudimentary, that the chatbot only ended up suggesting a few phrases that actually made sense. Today, in 2023, no one could distinguish if this very text has been written by a human or an AI.
So yes, we might even go as far as to name ourselves’prophets’ in our previous editions, in which we extensively explored the emergence of artificial intelligence, surveillance, the spread of fake information, censorship, technological wars, bioengineering, and the decline of technological enthusiasm and optimism.
Perhaps there was something special in the air, something emanating from sentiment analysis on social media, a glimpse that allowed us to imagine the approaching wave of superior knowledge. A whisper, a cosmic radiation heralding splendid, yet immensely complex times for the human mind.
