Is this thing on? Robot comedians Chips with Everything podcast

This week, Jordan Erica Webber chats to a computer scientist who programs robots to help them become more likeable, making it easier for humans to welcome them at work or at home. Heather Knight directs the Charisma* Robotics Lab, whose goal is to borrow methods from the performing arts to produce more charismatic robots. She also created Marilyn Monrobot, a robot theatre company with comedy performances, and the annual Robot film festival. She believes that in order to know what we need from our technologies, we first need to program them to be more delightful and less frustrating. A special shout out to engineer Eric Gleske, Larry Prybil and Steve Lunderberg at Oregon State University for helping us set up this interview.
