RSSC was Invited to Attend a Play (Uncanny Vaelley) about AI and Robotics
Where: International Theatre in Long Beach, California presents Uncanny Valley
When: See some of our InMoov humanoid robots promoting our society on opening night Friday April 21th, 2017.
About the play:
Drawing on current research in artificial intelligence and robotics, UNCANNY VALLEY charts the relationship between Claire, a neuroscientist, and Julian, a nonbiological human. As Julian is “born” a few body parts at a time over the course of the play, Claire teaches him how to be as human as possible. UNCANNY VALLEY explores the painful divide between creator and creation, and how we are redefining what it means to be human in the twenty-first century.
