Abstract

Human-computer interaction has emerged with the addition of computers to communication processes. The concept of human computer interaction was first used in 1983 by Stuart K. Card in The Pschology of Human Computer Interaction (Card, 1986). Considering the concept of human interaction, the process of human interaction with humans has been almost minimized with the Covid-19 issue. Human communication is not only physically beneficial, but also essential for mental health. Julianne Holt-Lunstad, a professor of psychology and neuroscience at Brigham Young University, in an environment she co-authored, it is clear that loneliness and social isolation are twice as harmful to physical and mental health than obesity (Walker, 2020). However, as a result of all this, the way of communication tend towards evolutionary change and transformation. With the combination of today's technologies with pandemic processes, the future will evolve into a completely virtual and a global world where the masses continue their communication and interaction through the virtual world.
