Tom Ziemke, EI'23 Conference

Tom Ziemke: Social Cognition in Human-Robot Interaction
Abstract: The talk discusses how people make sense of embodied AI systems in social interactions, in particular how intentional agency is attributed to interpret and predict the behavior of such systems. The talk also addresses what I call the observer’s grounding problem in human-robot interaction and its relation to the ‘old’ symbol grounding problem in embodied AI.
