Symbolism and Hesitation
This paper examines how coordination emerges when multiple users share control of a cybernetic avatar under constrained nonverbal channels. Across three observational studies in stylized testbeds, we identify two recurring regularities: the Maxim of Symbolization, whereby users compress task-relevant intentions into compact, reusable signals, and the Maxim of Hesitation, whereby users avoid direct overrides and often prefer indirect or delayed co…
Charting the future
This study investigates the potential of chart tools to augment or replace facilitation functions in Science Fiction Prototyping (SFP) workshops conducted by young students. SFP is a workshop methodology that utilizes science fiction to foster future visions, but facilitating SFP workshops poses significant challenges, particularly for young people with limited experience and vocabulary. To address this, a chart tool was developed to complement o…
Visions of Artificial Intelligence and Robots in Science Fiction
Driven by the rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI) and anthropomorphic robotic systems, the various possibilities and risks of such technologies have become a topic of urgent discussion. Although science fiction (SF) works are often cited as references for visions of future developments, this framework of discourse may not be appropriate for serious discussions owing to technical inaccuracies resulting from its reliance on entertainm…
Future Relations between Humans and Artificial Intelligence
Concern about the potential benefits and risks of artificial intelligence (AI) has given impetus to the establishment of AI research. AI requires responsible research and innovation (RRI) with the collaboration of various stakeholders, including the public, from the early stages. However, stakeholders may have different opinions about AI and human-machine relations. We aim to discuss these viewpoints by conducting a questionnaire survey, and to s…
