Artificial Identity: Difference between revisions

'''Artificial Identity''', sometimes called '''Robotic Identity''' or '''Machine Identity''', is an umbrella term that encompasses many other identities in which people identify with robots and machines. Such people typically feel a disconnection between humanity and themselves, feeling much more relationin tocommmon with robots and identifying as such.

Robotkin is a kin identity under the [[Wikipedia:Otherkin|Otherkin]] umbrella wherein one identifies as a robot and often believe themselves to be spiritually nonhuman or in a non-physical way, such as through reincarnation or psychologically. Robotkin have often been excluded from the greater otherkin community due to the belief that one cannot identify as something without a soul, classing robots as something without a soul. However, this belief has been challenged both by the greater scientific community, which havehas disputed the existence of the soul, and by many animist belief systems that do not hold souls to be exclusive to organic life. This idea additionally excludes fictionkin, plantkin and voidkin identities, among others.
