Chatbots already showcase the transformative potential of Artificial Intelligence. Yet, this intelligence remains largely confined to the digital realm.

The Robociety project is at the forefront of exploring both the technical and societal challenges involved in bringing AI into the physical world - through embodied robots that can move, speak, and act. This ambitious integration demands not only the development of robots capable of natural human interaction, but also thoughtful strategies to ensure their acceptance and integration into everyday life.

Robociety's vision

Robociety seeks to deepen our understanding of both robots and humans, with a strong focus on developing predictive models of human behavior to enable seamless interactions and foster positive societal acceptance.

The overarching vision is to unlock the benefits that robots can bring to society - while proactively addressing the potential risks they pose. To achieve this, we approach the challenge from four distinct yet interconnected perspectives.
