Q: How will we know that a robot feels empathy when we can program it to answer to any way we want? Minoru-san responds by asking how do you know that a human has empathy. MC says you’ll know because the empathy light will come on. #SydneyIdeas
Q: Both speakers seem to link the issues discussed with an embodiment. What about distributed AI systems? Minoru-san say he doesn’t believe in this kind of AI. You need a physicality to understand pain and have empathy etc. Well-worded answer, will try to write up. #SydneyIdeas
Jones says that when the computer apologies for an error, she doesn’t actually expect the computer to feel sorry for her, it’s just a way of speaking. #SydneyIdeas
Shortly I’ll be tweeting a bit from the @Sydney_Ideas event “Why should the perfect robot look and think just like a human? Rethinking human-machine relations” sydney.edu.au/news-opinion/s… I’ll try to thread all my tweets, but will also try to tag them #SydneyIdeas. 
Decent crowd. #SydneyIdeas
Our MC (missed his name, sorry) is setting the scene by talking about ethics, safety, and whether robots really should be artificial humans and interchangeable with them, or something else. #SydneyIdeas
