What defines a chatbot in an age of synthetic conversation? What happens when language becomes interface, and dialogue becomes design?
URCA explores chatbots as expressive systems—tools, agents, and symbolic mirrors of human interaction. This archive includes conversational AI, virtual assistants, customer service bots, and generative interfaces that speak, listen, and adapt.
