Agency and influence: moral communication for interactive robots
… behaviors proliferate into a widening variety of contexts and roles, it is clear that we have a lot to learn about how humans expect (and prefer) these robots to act, how humans perceive different robot behaviors and judge or sanction robot misbehaviors, and how robots should fit into, shape, and …
