Story4.5 out of 5 stars 35
There has been a lot of ink devoted to discussions of how robots will replace us and take our jobs. But MIT Media Lab researcher and technology policy expert Kate Darling argues just the opposite, and that treating robots with a bit of humanity, more like the way we treat animals, will actually serve us better.

The book is interesting, and makes good points, but Kate darling forgot about slavery in history

For UX professionals this is a primer on our next interaction patterns
Reviewed: 04-03-23
I got this book after seeing Kate speak at the IxDA conference in 2023. As a user experience professional, I realized that as robots become more and more commonplace in our lives and work, we’re going to need to create interaction patterns and methods. Kate’s book provides a framework and historical perspective on how humans and robots can live and work together in our near future. I recommend this book for UX designers (and really anyone else). It’s interesting and thought provoking. While it doesn’t give you all the answers on how we should solve this, it will get you started on what I feel is the right approach.
