Possible | Socially Assistive Robots with Maja Matari? [AI miniseries]

What if we each had a personal “buddy” to support us??

Maja Mataric is a computer scientist, roboticist and AI researcher at the USC Viterbi School of Engineering . She pioneered the field of socially assistive robotics: the design of robots to help humans—especially vulnerable people such as kids with autism, the elderly, and people struggling with illness—navigate complicated social needs.?

In the second episode of our AI miniseries, Maja, Aria Finger and I discuss AI, robots and our future with both.?

Throughout her career, Maja has sought to understand human needs and desires in order to create the right kind of robot. How big should it be? Should it be a humanoid? Animal??

These questions lead to the nature of empathy itself—and what it means for robots to be empathetic.?

Maja also responds to an AI-generated story that speculates on the role that a socially assistive robot could play for an multigenerational family.

?? Loved hearing Maja’s insights on the intersection of #robotics + #AI + #empathy. Completely agree that as “embodied intelligence”, robotics has the potential to “amplify humanity” and usher in a new era. ?? Which is exactly what gets us excited at Serve Robotics! ?? I was also delighted to hear from Maja Mataric that Wall-E (which heavily inspired our huggable robots) is her favorite example of robot design for empathy. #robots #design #podcast #intelligence
