商品描述

A social robot is a robot that interacts and communicates with humans or other autonomous physical agents by following social behaviors and rules attached to its role. We seem to accept the use of robots that perform dull, dirty, and dangerous jobs. But how far do we want to go with the automation of care for children and the elderly, or the killing of terrorists? Would we be setting humanity aside if we accepted such automation?

Just Ordinary Robots: Automation from Love to War provides a socially involved, yet sober, view into the new age of robots. It supplies a cutting-edge look at robot technologies, including what these technologies are capable of and the ethical and regulatory questions they raise.

The book surveys the various types of social robots and examines their social significance in homes, health care, traffic, the police, and the military. Considering the technical characteristics and societal expectations of robots in these areas, it explores what is possible right now in terms of robot technologies. It also looks into the social, ethical, and regulatory issues future robot technologies will create.

The text provides authoritative insights into the social significance of robots for the medium and long term. Illustrating the political, administrative, and regulatory consequences related to each area, it highlights key points that need to be publicly discussed or put on the agenda by today’s politicians and policy makers.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

社交機器人是一種與人類或其他自主物理代理互動和溝通的機器人,它遵循與其角色相關的社交行為和規則。我們似乎接受使用執行單調、骯髒和危險工作的機器人。但是,當涉及到照顧兒童和老年人,或者殺死恐怖分子時,我們想要將自動化推向何種程度?如果我們接受這種自動化,是否會把人性拋諸腦後?

《Just Ordinary Robots: Automation from Love to War》提供了一個關注社會問題的、冷靜的觀點,探索機器人新時代。它提供了對機器人技術的前沿觀察,包括這些技術的能力以及它們引發的倫理和監管問題。

該書概述了各種類型的社交機器人,並檢視了它們在家庭、醫療保健、交通、警察和軍事等領域的社會意義。考慮到這些領域中機器人的技術特點和社會期望,它探討了目前在機器人技術方面的可能性。它還探討了未來機器人技術將帶來的社會、倫理和監管問題。

本書提供了對中長期機器人社會意義的權威見解。通過說明與每個領域相關的政治、行政和監管後果,它強調了當今政治家和政策制定者需要公開討論或納入議程的關鍵問題。
