Ran into Tally, the grocery store inventory-checking robot at Martin’s in South Bend, IN. (Sorry about the overly quick video. Simone was coming and I felt weird recording it!) Will post in the comments a news segment about Tally in another grocery store.) #robots #aiethics #robotethics

I gave a presentation on the concepts of "inochi" (life) and the animated persona, and their application to robots, at the Embassy of the Netherlands, Tokyo. The event was organized by Matthew Dennis from Eindhoven University of Technology. #philosophy #robots #robotethics

Dang! @ncstate.bsky.social’s bookBot, a robotic library storage & retrieval system on their engineering campus, is very cool. Maybe a good way to, y’know, actually continue to store physical books in a library? Would like to know more about this robotic system! #academicsky #robotethics #techethics

Our work on design and ethical recommendations for robotic mental well-being coaches was presented by Prof. Gunes at #HRI2025, at the T-HRI invited talks session! Sad I couldn't be there in person, fingers crossed for the next HRI...
