Robots That Talk and Listen provides a forward-looking examination
of speech and language in robots from technical, functional, and
social perspectives. Contributors address cultural foundations as
well as the linguistic skills and technologies that robots need to
function effectively in real-world settings. Among the most
difficult and complex is the ability to understand and use
language. Speech-enabled automata are already serving as
interactive toys, teacher's aides, and research assistants. These
robots will soon be joined by personal companions, industrial
co-workers, and military support automata. The social impact of
these and other robots extends well beyond the specific tasks they
perform. Contributors tackle the most knotty of those issues,
notably acceptance of advanced, speech-enabled robots and
developing ethical and moral controls for robots. Topics in this
book include: * Language and Beyond: The True Meaning of "Speech
Enabled" * Robots in Myth and Media * Enabling Robots to Converse *
Language Learning by Automata * Handling Noisy Settings * Empirical
Studies of Robots in Real-World Environments * Acceptance of
Intelligent Robots * Managing Robots that Can Lie and Deceive *
Envisioning a World Shared with Intelligent Robots
