具有道德推理能力的智能机器人将不可避免地面临这样的情况,即它们必须对可能违反规范原则并可能对人类造成伤害的人类命令做出反应。我们认为,机器人能够拒绝这样的命令至关重要。因此,我们解决了两个关键的挑战,何时以及如何拒绝违反规范的指令。首先,我们目前的研究在两个工程语言启用的机器人,可以从事基本的拒绝对话,以及相关的HRI研究的有效性机器人抗议。其次,我们认为thathowrejections措辞是重要的,并审查的因素,应指导自然语言配方的命令拒绝。最后,我们通过确定相关的开放性问题来得出结论,这些问题将进一步为未来具有语言能力和道德能力的机器人的设计提供信息。
Language-enabled robots with moral reasoning capabilities will inevitably face situations in which they have to respond to human commands that might violate normative principles and could cause harm to humans. We believe that it is critical for robots to be able to reject such commands. We thus address the two key challenges ofwhenandhowto reject norm-violating directives. First, we present research in both engineering language-enabled robots that can engage in rudimentary rejection dialogues, as well as related HRI research into the effectiveness of robot protest. Second, we argue thathowrejections are phrased is important and review the factors that should guide natural language formulations of command rejections. Finally, we conclude by identifying relevant open questions that will further inform the design of future language-capable and morally competent robots.
