Abstract: Abstract Progress of civilization is characterized by a horizontal and vertical expansion of techno-sphere, which currently has digital technologies and AI at the core. Although the evolution of machines and its impact on human behaviour, and socio-economic, political, and cultural activities have been a subject of debate for the last two centuries (Corpo 2017; Ash et al. 2016), the rise of digital technologies, especially since the early 1990s with commercialization of internet and availability of cheap computing machines, have had massive disruptive and transformative impacts on human to human, human and environment, human and machine and body and mind relationships.
