Social?

  • Often implying human social behaviour
  • Human-Robot Interaction
  • Other models of social behaviour are possible, see work inspired by

dog behaviour etc.

  • Fewer expectations!

The people

  • Personalisation
  • Personality
  • Individual differences
  • Older people, children etc.

Robotics

  • Robot are not what they used to be….
  • A moving target

Robotics

  • Human-robot interaction studies very costly

to run

  • Simulation vs. real world experiments
  • Trust…

Social robotics/HRI and ethics

  • Do we need ethical algorithms?
  • How to children learn about good and bad

behaviour?

  • Learning by experience and imitation, more

than learning by instruction

  • Focus often on humanoids-androids
  • Our tendency to be fascinated by creating
  • bjects in our image
  • Raises expectations
  • Can impair our notions of what it means to be

human

  • Can make us more robotic in what we do and

how we think about ourselves, others and relationships

Ethical dilemmas for HRI?

  • Care and home robots -Who is the master, who is the slave?
  • ‘Buying into’ a service
  • Relational artifacts that may deceive us (Sherry Turkle)
  • We may empathise with robots but they don’t care about us…
