Robot-Human Interaction with Stefanie Tellex
Manage episode 179031026 series 1436861
Robots sometimes need help from humans when solving complex problems.
Successfully solving a problem often demands a strong model for communication and well-trained robots.
Stefanie Tellex is an assistant professor at Brown University whose research focuses on constructing robots that use natural language to communicate with humans.
Questions
- The goal of your research is to construct robots that seamlessly use natural language to communicate with humans. How close are we to that goal?
- Why is communication between robot and human a problem that is rooted in both linguistics and philosophy?
- Why do we need a mathematical framework for communicating with robots?
- Do robots perceive our physical environment in the same way that people do?
- What is the future of human-robot interaction?
- With artificial intelligence, are we summoning the demon, as Elon Musk says?
