Robot Form Study: How Appearance Affects Human Interaction Behavior
By
–
We tested a robot form, human-like character, animals, and objects. People change how they interact depending on looks. RTT Test arxiv.org/abs/2507.10812 Full set of human behaviors ieeexplore.ieee.org/document… We are inspired by @mpshanahan's essays and others. Feedback welcome!

Testing Robot’s Sensing, Motor Abilities and Emotional Responses
By
–
In our preliminary experiments, people tested: 1. The robot's sensing abilities, such as whether it could track them visually or respond to poking 2. The robot's motor abilities, or whether they could copy their movements 3. The robot's responses to smiling, aggression,…

React to This Test: Identifying Teleopererated Robots Through Movement
By
–
You have one minute to interact with a robot through movement only. At the end, you need to say whether it's tele-operated or not. That's the React to This (RTT) Test – one of the robot Turing tests presented at activeself.de/movement-matte… Here's how initial tests went down 👇

Les progrès en robotique continuent
— Docteur Laurent Alexandre (@dr_l_alexandre) 6 août 2025
Un robot humanoïde va coûter 10 à 100 fois moins cher à l’heure qu’un travailleur humain
Pas besoin de médecine du travail ni de syndicats ni de cantine ni de fiches de paye ni de DRH
