=== Overview ===

In recent years, AI and robotics technologies have been empowering artificial systems and robots with a certain kind of “autonomy.” It’s time to reconsider the meaning of “autonomy” in artificial systems from not only technological aspect, but from more broader perspectives such as moral, ethical, legal and social ones. In this workshop, speakers will show their thoughts and ideas on the issues from diverse perspectives: technological (robotics, AI, neuroscience, psychology, cognitive science and so on), philosophical, ethical, legal, and social implications aspects. The aim of this workshop is to share the idea to solve the potential issues of the current and future autonomous robots and systems. Further, we aim to design AI and autonomous systems with human capabilities (such as abstract thinking and adaptability) and beliefs (such as trust and acceptability) in mind.

In light of COVID-19, this workshop will be held virtually on Zoom and free to participate.
