arXiv:2607. 16428v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: For a second time, the android robot Andrea was set up at a public museum in Germany for six consecutive days to have conversations with visitors, fully autonomously.
arXiv:2607. 24113v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Previous research has shown that a human-like robot's acceptance heavily depends on the setting in which it operates and its ability to perform relevant tasks.
arXiv:2607. 24190v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Social robots that rely on large language models for conversation are unable to retain information across sessions.
arXiv:2606. 13256v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Humor plays a central role in human social relationships, and recent advances in computational humor create new opportunities for integrating humor into human-robot interaction (HRI).
arXiv:2606. 15565v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly being used in museums to as role playing chatbots which let visitors talk to simulated versions of people and artefacts from the past.
arXiv:2607. 20773v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) have shifted human--computer interaction from `traditional'' interface journeys toward more conversational exchanges.
Care robots are increasingly being introduced into healthcare settings, raising important questions about their acceptance and ethical implementation. To better understand these challenges, this study investigates caregivers' perceptions of four categories of care robots: delivering supplies, helping patients into bed, monitoring vital signs, and assisting with mobility.
arXiv:2608. 02411v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Care robots are increasingly being introduced into healthcare settings, raising important questions about their acceptance and ethical implementation.
arXiv:2607. 08625v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Consumer-facing health chatbots powered by large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used for symptom assessment.
arXiv:2607. 25166v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: AI chatbots can be ``sycophantic,'' or overly agreeable and flattering toward users.
arXiv:2607. 06344v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: While personalisation is becoming a defining capability in human-robot interaction (HRI), the existing literature on responsible personalisation remains fragmented, offering isolated accounts of ethical risks without a structured understanding of how they emerge across interaction contexts.
arXiv:2607. 25057v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As conversational AI systems become increasingly integrated into daily life, their potential effects on user well-being require ongoing attention.
arXiv:2607. 14631v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Inferring apparent personality from facial images is important in social scenarios for embodied agents in human-robot interaction.
