in case you missed our paper where we made robots that are sometimes queer and sometimes immigrants and brought them to 4th-6th grade classrooms to study the impact of robotic gender and ethnic diversity on trust and social bias, check it out here! @HRI_Conference #HRI2024

thank you thank you, i'm happy this is the slide that was tweeted 😁

Submit to our hybrid WS on Robo-Identity sites.google.com/view/hri2024wo… @HRI_Conference by 15 Feb! We’ll discuss topics like how our personal & social identity evolve & robots' identity can also do so! Identity is a design challenge in a world we share w/ 🤖! Follow @hriroboidentity

Call for Papers‼️🤖🆔 Robo-Identity: Designing for Identity in the Shared World, a hybrid half-day workshop at #HRI2024 Following the success of the 1st 2 editions of this workshop, this year, we will emphasise on the fluid nature of robo-identity in the shared world.

Call for papers coming soon! 3rd edition of the Robo-Identity workshop at #HRI2024 is in the works 🥳 This year's theme is *Robo-Identity: Designing for Identity in the Shared World*

Trans and non-binary people have unique perspectives that can help guide Human-Robot Interaction research. Find out more in @MIRRORLab MS student Michael Stolp-Smith's @HRI_Conference #HRI2024 paper: mirrorlab.mines.edu/publications/s… 🧵

Headline: "The rate of bad thing X has increased by 1 billion percent!" Translation: "The prior rate of X was probably really small and thus more subject to noise, and the current rate of X is probably still very small."

We're hiring again at @USR_Lab! Postdoc assoc. with EU project, topics inc. robot transparency, multimodal interaction, algorithmic fairness and gender-sensitive design. Need to have or be *very close* to having PhD! uu.varbi.com/en/what:job/jo…

@williamstome It was my pleasure Tom! Thank you for the invite!! 😄

Thank you @LuminantLux for the fantastic talk and for taking on the Hard Questions of HRI!

Thank you @LuminantLux from @UU_University for joining us today for our lab's summer speaker series! Lux shared their perspectives on social identity in human-robot interaction, and the results of her recent survey on this topic. 🧵/

"Extinction" would directly affect the elite, which is why they care about it mitigating "extinction" risks. "Sub-extinction" risks from AI that harm marginalized peoples don't get signatures like this, from Sam Harris, Grimes, and Toby Ord. Here's a crucial point: if AGI

@yishan This mostly sounds like a disparity between neurodivergent and neurotypical communication styles to me! Folks on the spectrum often take the logical meaning of sentences literally, while their neurotypical peers rely more on contextual clues.

A: "If I were going to Paris, where would be the best place to get a baguette?" B: "Oh! You're going to Paris?" A: "No, I'm just saying, where's the best place in Paris to get a baguette?" B: "Oh yeah, sure, you want to go to.... etc"

The majority of human beings cannot fully comprehend a statement that has a conditional as a key part of its meaning. This sounds incredible to those who can, but I'm pretty sure it's true.

You can't invoke the comparison that AI risk is on par with the existential and safety risks of nuclear, whilst simultaneously dismissing regulations and assessments of nuclear systems as being too rigorous for AI.

Glimpses of AGI: octopus correctly predicted several UEFA Championship and FIFA World Cup football match results. @emilymbender @timnitGebru @ninadhora en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_the_…

Hot take: Word limits are almost always better than page limits!! Page limits: - Encourage margin fudging - Amount of content differs on page+font size, line spacing, margins, phase of the moon Word limits: - Encourage succinct writing - Amount of content is always the same!

“We reject the premise that only wealthy white men…decide what constitutes an existential threat to society….For people of color, women, LGBTQIA+ people, religious & caste minorities, indigenous people, migrants…technology has always posed an existential threat…
