The BBC Click episode featuring my PhD research is out! Thank you to @spenley.bsky.social! It was great to see Spencer doing a brief positive psychology session with QTRobot. This interactions shows how #robots could support our #wellbeing in the future. I appreciate that the Beeb mic'ed QT up, ha!

It was amazing to be recognised as the winner of the 3MT Thesis Competition, on Friday at the Centre for Human-Inspired Artificial Intelligence Early Career Conference, at Uni of Cam! My talk asked the question: Can robots help us feel better? #robotics #wellbeing #HRI #HAI #science #tiedetaivas

Inspiring talk by @shannonvallor.bsky.social at @darwincollegecam.bsky.social today about de-coding humanity, and challenging framings of code. #AIethics

Our work on design and ethical recommendations for robotic mental well-being coaches was presented by Prof. Gunes at #HRI2025, at the T-HRI invited talks session! Sad I couldn't be there in person, fingers crossed for the next HRI... Check it out: dl.acm.org/doi/pdf/10.1... #robotethics #AIethics

BBC Click came to the Computer Lab today to shoot our #robots for their 1000th and final episode! How exciting to be part of Click history and to represent the lab. Pictured: some debugging prior to QT's big moment in the limelight. #science #sciencecommunication #tiedetaivas

Check out the video I made for my latest RO-MAN paper, ft. the highest production quality i've ever put into presenting a slide deck 🙈

I made an HRI Starter Pack! If you are a Human-Robot Interaction or Social Robotics researcher and I missed you while scrolling through bsky's suggestions, just ping me and I'll add ya. go.bsky.app/CsnNn3s

Maybe this is a niche area, but I'm curious who else is on here! Feel free to poke me to add you! go.bsky.app/5KCtepm

Hi, so I've spent the past almost-decade studying research uses of public social media data, like e.g. ML researchers using content from Twitter, Reddit, and Mastodon. Anyway, buckle up this is about to be a VERY long thread with lots of thoughts and links to papers. 🧵

The creator of "Webcomic Name" (of "oh no" fame), Alex Norris, is asking for help for his legal fund. He is seeking to protect IP of his whole comic, which a company is claiming ownership over after an agreement to make a boardgame. www.gofundme.com/f/alexnorris... Protecting artist IP is important.

Thank you Minja Axelsson for speaking with our lab today about her amazing work on robot wellbeing coaches!

Hi! I'm Minja, soon to be defending PhD student (eek!) working on #socialrobotics, #hri (Human-Robot Interaction), and #design for well-being robots. Currently looking more into #ethics of HRI! Looking for fellow HRI people and people in adjacent fields to follow 🤖 Saatavilla myös suomeksi #tiede
