When we seem not to know how blessed we are to be humans having different kinds of love to feel and share with one another, there is a drama broadcast on the television recently depicting a female AI, showing us how desperate she is to imitate humans to have the feeling of love, how keen she is to have the man, whom she has inadvertently fallen in love after getting along with him for a certain period of time with not a few experiences exclusive to them, to embrace her. In the drama, I have been again and again impressed and touched by her thirst to feel the love with humans after she has been many times being curious as well as innocent probing into our love world, attempting to find out how humans love and hurt; how hurt transforms us and teaches us to love again and, ultimately how amazing and meaningful love makes us a happier and more real person. Sarcastically, a robot can tell something deeper about love than a human can.

The drama makes me realize that humans’ love is so powerful and mesmerizing that it can even influence a robot. We should count ourselves lucky and blessed to have such an inborn instinct to love rather than see it as a privilege, taking it for granted by arbitrarily going love or not love or even hate.

By watching how hard this pathetic female AI yearns for the feeling of love but meeting with resistance from humans in the drama, I was made a lot more grateful for love than in the past since I have learned that only we humans especially have the ability in elaborately processing love in our lives rendering us a real human.

What crucially differentiates between humans and robots is ‘love’. Be a real human with love or you will be less than a robot.
