Abstract

Machines are becoming more socially aware as the fields of affective computing and ambient intelligence advance. In the future such machines will start to become more commonplace in domestic and work environments. How will these machines affect people's behavior? Previous work shows that people both have a tendency to treat machines like humans, as well as to abuse them. We have designed an experiment to understand people's attitudes concerning affect-sensitive machines and their expressivity toward them.
