from Part I - An Introduction to the Law, Policy, and Regulation for Human–Robot Interaction
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 07 December 2024
This chapter introduces issues of law, policy, and regulations for human interaction with robots that are AI enabled, expressive, humanoid in appearance, and that are anthropomorphized by users. These features are leading to a class of robots that are beginning to pose unique challenges to courts, legislators, and the robotics industry as they consider how the behavior of robots operating with sophisticated social skills and increasing levels of intelligence should be regulated. In this chapter we introduce basic terms, definitions, and concepts which relate to human interaction with AI-enabled and social robots and we review some of the regulations, statutes, and case law which apply to such robots and we do so specifically in the context of human–robot interaction. Our goal in this chapter is to provide a conceptual framework for the chapters which follow focusing on human interaction with robots that are becoming more like us in form and behavior.
