Improving Human Interaction with Autonomous Systems: Supporting Intentionality through Increased Awareness
نویسندگان
چکیده
Understanding intentionality is a necessary feature of joint activities involving interdependent agents. This challenge has increased alongside the deployment of autonomous systems that are to some degree unsupervised. This research aims to reduce the number of intentionality recognition breakdowns between people and autonomous systems by designing systems to support the awareness of information cues used in those decisions. The paper outlines theoretical foundations for this approach using simulation theory and process models of intention. The notion of breakdowns is then applied to mistaken intentions in a diary study to gain insight into the phenomena. Author

Establishing Causality in Complex Human Interactions: Identifying Breakdowns of Intentionality
People in complex scenarios face the challenge of understanding the purpose and effect of other human and computational behaviour on their own goals through intent recognition. They are left asking what caused person or system ‘x’ to do that? The necessity to provide this support human-computer interaction has increased alongside the deployment of autonomous systems that are to some degree unsu...
متن کاملConsciousness: Natural and Artificial
Based on results from evolutionary psychology, we discuss important functions that can be served by consciousness in autonomous robots. These include deliberately controlled action, conscious awareness, self-awareness, metacognition, and ego consciousness. We distinguish intrinsic intentionality from consciousness, but argue it is also important to understanding robot cognition. Finally, we exp...
متن کاملRobots, Objects, Humans: Towards Seamless Interaction in Intelligent Environments - Supporting Complex Cooperative Interactions between Humans and Technical Systems in Real World Scenarios through Cognitive Objects
Future intelligent environments will be inhabited by humans, robots and ‘Smart Objects’ and allow for seamless interaction beyond the desktop. These environments therefore have to be adaptive, self-organizing, provide autonomous reasoning and integrate a variety of heterogenous hardware, objects, sensors and actuators – which goes far beyond merely interconnecting different kinds of technology....
متن کاملHow to build robots that make friends and influence people
In order to interact socially with a human, a robot must convey intentionality, that is, the human must believe that the robot has beliefs, desires, and intentions. We have constructed a robot which exploits natural human social tendencies to convey intentionality through motor actions and facial expressions. We present results on the integration of perception, attention, motivation, behavior, ...
متن کاملConsciousness in Robots :
Based on results from evolutionary psychology we discuss important functions that can be served by consciousness in autonomous robots. We distinguish intrinsic intentionality from consciousness, but argue it is also important. Finally we explore the Hard Problem for robots (i.e., whether they can experience subjective awareness) from the perspective of the theory of protophenomena. * This repor...
