Leila Takayama: What's it like to be a robot? (2018x27)

Air date: Jan 25, 2018

What will a future with even more robots look like? Social scientist Leila Takayama shares some unique challenges of designing for human-robot interactions -- and how experimenting with robotic futures actually leads us to a better understanding of ourselves.
