Masters & Robots with GAIA

Table of contents

How can we make technologies that surround us become emotion-aware and our interactions with them more personalized, relevant, and authentic? To develop systems based on AI, which will have a profound understanding of human needs and behaviour, we need to equip them with empathy, as they must generate real-time insights that arise from emotional intelligence, voice, and text communication. During this edition of Masters & Robots, five global experts will discuss what empathetic assistants are capable of today and what will they be able to do tomorrow. They will also tell us what we should do to avoid building bias into those systems and prevent them from crossing previously identified moral, privacy, and ethics lines.

The GAIA Foundation is the Content Partner of Master & Robots 2021 edition. We are going to be represented by David Hanson in the panel discussion about Empathetic Assistants.

David Hanson Founder & CEO of Hanson Robotics and Founder of GAIA. Title of the panel is “Empathetic Assistants –  Benefits and Risks of AI Equipped with Empathy”
