Acabo de recibir el librito que recoge todas las ponencias, incluida la mía, de las Jornadas 'IA y Teología: una relación a construir' organizadas hace casi un año por la Universidad Pontificia de Salamanca. #Teologia #Etica #InteligenciaArtificial #AIEthics #HRI #HumanRobotInteraction #Roboetica

Robotics software is too often driven by patents instead of imagination, creativity, and conscience.
True engineering needs both: the mathematical rigor to clamp the motors on a dime, and the imagination to protect human dignity.
Both are needed. Both can be combined.

The planner proposes. The supervisory gate decides. Default is stop.

Actuator authority separation on TIAGo (Webots): untrusted planner on UDP, gate owns the wheels, enforces a dynamic lidar stop envelope, and logs with SHA-256.

We don't need robots that mimic human ego. We need machines that honor human dignity.
A sub-ms physical reflex that protects flesh.
A moral gate that refuses corrupt orders.
An architecture of quiet restraint.
Solo builder. Real code.
Only God knows the future.

I've finished "Artificial Intimacy: Who We Become When We Talk to Machines" (www.amazon.es/Artificial-I...) by @STurkle #libros #books #Chatbots #MMI #ManMachineInterface #HRI #HumanRobotInteraction #Psychology

He terminado el curso "Robótica: Interacción Humano-Robot. Teoría y aplicaciones" (www.udemy.com/share/106zVU...) en Udemy . #HRI #HumanRobotInteraction #Robotica #Robtics #Robots

When a robot enforces the rules, how it treats you matters. New work with PhD student Xin Ye: robots that explain decisions, hear people out, and apply rules consistently earn more trust as authority figures. HFES HART Best Student Paper runner-up 🎉

🤖 Our lab AGIBOT has "company": almost 25k humanoids shipped worldwide in H1 2026, 8.6k of them AGIBOTs. About 69% went to research and education rather than industry, so thousands of teams are now developing these robots and their interaction with people. #HRI #robotics

Talking about design principles in class. #HRI folks, what do we make of Atlas? Humanoid, with some non-human design. Light ring face, acceptable with minimal facial features? Insane motion mechanics, acceptable with metal/steam-punk body? @hri-conference.bsky.social

Should AI always obey? Our new research commentary explores when robots may need to refuse or challenge a request for principled reasons—and the questions that it raises about safety, ethics, trust, and who gets to decide.

📢 New Episode Alert!

In the first episode of the new season, I chatted to Dr. Aaron Edsinger from @hellorobot.bsky.social about their Stretch robots that can help people with mobility issues live more independently. 🤖

Next week I will head to IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS) #IROS2026 in Pittsburgh. I'll be there for the full week, 27 Sep – 1 Oct, workshops included, and would love to connect. Here's where you'll definitely find me.

#Robotics #RobotLearning #HRI #VLM

SROS2 and DDS-Security are areas I'm actively learning.

How do you balance local on-chassis reflexes vs network security in your robots?

Ok, .... here me out ... maybe a little less of #ACM 's time and effort should go to AI podcasts of articles and a little more to getting the submit bug button to work ... just me?
