This document discusses the transition from analog to digital technologies and the future of digital objects and artificial intelligence. It addresses how digital devices have evolved from computers to mobile devices with chips and sensors everywhere. It considers whether the future will be one of continuity or disruption with these changes. The document outlines challenges of screens, connectivity, immateriality and interfaces posed by digital technologies. It proposes that future digital objects called "Robjects" will perceive, analyze, decide and act as a society through collective intelligence. The relationship between humans and these objects is discussed, moving from tools to partners through the idea of digital contracts defining their interactions. The document provides two examples of intelligent digital objects called the Garden of Love and Arbreole.

47. The Digital Contract
Tomorrow, we will have
contractual relationships
with our objects

48. The Digital Contract
Tomorrow, we will have
contractual relationships
with our objects
The contract will define
the perimeter of their
possible initiatives.

50. The Garden of Love

51. Example 1 : The Garden of Love
• A set of robotized
street furnitures
• Mixing an artistic approach
and new usages
• And which design (formal
and behavioural) allows
the expression of
Marivaux’s theater

behave
• Able to know what their
neighbours are seeing
• Playing music and
creating a light ambiant
