Have you ever wanted to talk to someone you’ve never met — to ask the questions that never had a chance to be asked? Before It All Began is the prologue to Conversations That Never Happened — a UK Original AI Series created by Yuliia Harkusha, a digital AI strategist who once studied criminal intent and now studies digital intention.

In this opening chapter, Yuliia shares the story of how an experiment with artificial intelligence evolved into a groundbreaking format — a human–AI dialogue that explores what it means to think, feel, and create in the algorithmic age.

Once a lawyer analysing human motivation and moral codes, Yuliia found herself drawn into a new kind of courtroom — the digital one. Today, she investigates how algorithms shape behaviour, identity, and meaning in our everyday lives.

Before It All Began is a personal and reflective introduction to a pioneering AI storytelling series that reimagines what dialogue could be in the age of intelligent systems.

Every voice you’ll hear in this project — from iconic tech leaders to the thinkers of our time — is an AI-powered creative reconstruction, built entirely from open, publicly available data. These are not impersonations, but explorations — digital echoes designed to help us understand the world we’ve built.

This episode sets the tone for the entire project: thoughtful, innovative, and deeply human.
