When Pinocchio becomes a real boy: Capability and felicity in AI and interactive depictions

Research output: Contribution to journalReview articlepeer-review

Abstract

Clark and Fischer analyze social robots as interactive depictions, presenting characters that people can interact with in social settings. Unlike other types of depictions, the props for social robot depictions depend on emerging interactive technologies. This raises questions about how such depictions depict: They conflate character and prop in ways that delight, confuse, mistreat, and may become ordinary human-technology interactions.
