Science On Screen®:
"Let me tell you about my best friend: A.I. Companionship and Relationships Onscreen"
American Cinematheque, Los Angeles, CA: March 26, 2024
Film: ROBOT & FRANK

Professor Na Du of the Department of Informatics and Networked Systems, University of Pittsburgh, discusses her research areas and past lab experience examining the evolution of the human-robot relationship. How does trust affect the relationship between humans and machines? What happens when that trust is broken? The talk references the research behind these studies and Professor Du’s thoughts on the future.

This event was part of our 2024 National Evening of Science on Screen.

We encourage you to pair this conversation with ROBOT & FRANK: In the near future, an ex-jewel thief receives a gift from his son: a robot butler programmed to look after him. But soon the two companions try their luck as a heist team.
