SORO – Interdisciplinary Workshop on the Governance for Social Robots (half day)
The objective of this workshop is on the governance for social robots through interdisciplinary approaches. With the rapid development of AI and IoT, social robots will be able to adapt into (semi) public environments to perform their tasks on healthcare and personal service. This also arises ethical considerations like deception, privacy, safety, etc. from their close interactions with humans. With this concern, this workshop will include two sessions on philosophical and computational approaches respectively to investigate possible solutions for the governance for social robots.
