Last CALL FOR PARTICIPATION
International Research Conference
Robophilosophy 2024
PROSPECTS, RISKS, AND RESPONSIBLE METHODS
August 20-23, 2024
Aarhus University, Denmark
The recent technological leap in AI capacities accelerates the development of highly skilled social robots. But it also increases longstanding concerns about the socio-cultural implications of this emerging technology.
The aim of the sixth international Robophilosophy Conference RP2024 is to address the socio-cultural, ethical, existential, and theoretical questions raised by the use of generative multimodal AIs in social robotics. For this purpose, RP2024 will bring together international researchers from the Humanities and social sciences (specializing in HRI), social robotics, and computer science.
Join us, in person or remotely, for one of the world’s largest events featuring interdisciplinary research in and on social robotics, with focus on the Humanities: RP2024 presents 108 research talks (19 sessions, 12 workshops, and 8 plenaries).
