In this work, we address the evolving landscape of roboethics, expanding beyond physical safety to encompass broader societal implications. … (voir plus)Recognizing the siloed nature of existing initiatives to teach and inform ethical implications of artificial intelligence (AI) and robotic systems, we present a roboethics teaching module designed for K-12 students and general audiences. The module focuses on the high-level analysis of the interplay between robot behaviour design choices and ethics, using everyday social dilemmas. We delivered the module in a workshop to high school students in Montreal, Canada. From this experience, we observed that the module successfully fostered critical thinking and ethical considerations in students, without requiring advanced technical knowledge. This teaching module holds promise to reach a wider range of populations. We urge the education community to explore similar approaches and engage in interdisciplinary training opportunities regarding the ethical implications of AI and robotics.

Many roboticists hope to build robots and develop technologies that would one day help vulnerable populations to improve their quality of li… (voir plus)fe. As there are over 2.2 billion people with visual impairments in the world, this vulnerable population is a prime target for robotic assistants to help. In a discussion with a Certified Orientation and Mobility Specialist, someone who helps individuals with visual impairments navigate and perform daily tasks effectively, some interesting and counterintuitive questions were raised about technological developments, particularly robots. While these devices were meant to help the BVI population, many are, in reality, not practically beneficial. In this article, we highlight certain misconceptions about the BVI population and their needs. We emphasize the mismatch between robotics research and the needs of the individuals with visual impairments, especially from the lens of HRI researchers.
