Why should a failure prevent you from an upcoming success and why should a success that adds no meaning to your life anymore hold you from venturing out and trying something different?

Though we might blame external sources for our current state, in reality it is nothing else but our own self imposed restrictions that hinder our ability to create change.

As robots become increasingly present in human society, considerable gaps remain between expectations for the social roles these robots might play and their actual abilities.

Research examining social cognition when interacting with robots offers a promising avenue for understanding how best to introduce robots to complex social settings, such as in schools, hospitals, and at home.
