Yes, there are uses for artificial elements. Though they are not in common everyday household objects, they can be used to figure out how atoms work and how elements are made, and if there are even heavier elements in the universe.

There are currently 24 artificial elements created by scientists through nuclear reactions in laboratories. These elements do not exist naturally on Earth and are typically unstable, with very short half-lives.
most of the synthetic elements are used in the nuclear technology industry but a few have found uses in the home such as americium which is used in smoke detectors and californium wich is used in metal detectors
Only in research, as they are artificial and not available in your daily life? Tell me.
Artificial elements are elements that cannot be found in nature and are only created in a lab. Some examples include (Cm) curium, (Db) dubnium, and (Hs) hassium.
Example: irradiation, sources of energy, sources of radiations, nuclear fuels, physical and chemical studies, medical uses etc.
Elements past 92 are considered transuranium elements, which are all synthetic and are created artificially in laboratories. These elements do not occur naturally on Earth.
There are 118 known chemical elements in the periodic table, with the most recent element being Oganesson.
The group of elements with only 5 elements are the halogens in group 17 of the periodic table. These elements are fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, and astatine.
Elements beyond uranium are known as transuranium elements, which are all synthetic and unstable. They are typically produced in laboratories through nuclear reactions and have very short half-lives. These elements are important for scientific research into nuclear structure and properties.
Artificial grass is typically made from synthetic materials such as polyethylene or polypropylene. These materials are designed to mimic the look and feel of natural grass while being durable enough to withstand outdoor elements. Artificial grass also often includes a backing material for support and stability.
