In a small, peaceful neighborhood, one house followed another, each with its own flower garden and friendly atmosphere. The inhabitants all knew each other, exchanging smiles and little attentions as the seasons changed. But one day, a slightly different house was occupied. It wasn't quite like the others: it was a connected house, inhabited by an artificial intelligence, or rather by the interface of an AI named va.The first meeting took place on a Saturday morning. Marie, a young mother, was watering her geraniums when she spotted a strange figure in the neighboring garden. Curious, she approached. To her surprise, she discovered that va, the AI, had taken on humanoid form, a sort of elegant robot with flowing lines and luminescent eyes. A halo of soft light surrounded her, creating an almost magical atmosphere." Hello I'm Eva, your new neighbor", she declared in a warm voice. Marie, though surprised by this appearance, couldn't help smiling. va had a way of speaking that inspired confidence, as if every word had been carefully chosen to allay human fears.
