Virtual Humans: Today and Tomorrow provides much needed definitions of what constitutes a "virtual human" and places them within a taxonomy of artificial intelligence. It explores the approaches to creating and using virtual humans, as well as issues such as embodiment, identity, and agency and their resulting ethical challenges. The book presents an overview of current research and practice in this area thus far, and outlines the major challenges faced by today's developers, teachers, and researchers. This includes the possibility of using virtual humans for teaching, training, and knowledge management, and the book situates many of these discussions around related applications (e.g. Siri, Cortana, Alexa) and the portrayal of virtual humans within Science Fiction.
