Are You Talking to Me? What to say when talking to a robot

Are You Talking to Me? What to say when talking to a robot

This is a past event

Robots, mobile phones and computers surround us in our everyday lives. These technologies are continuously advancing, but will there become a time when they are able to make their own decisions and plans without human input? How we communicate with and understand these technologies is becoming increasingly important. Leading researchers from University of Aberdeen’s SAsSy group share novel research to explain why enabling these technologies to explain their behaviour is vital for the future.

2013 will be the 20th Anniversary for TechFest in September and an ambitious programme of activities have been planned! Events will take place across the University Campus, Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire. Click here  to view University of Aberdeen highlights and download the full programme.
