What we talk about when we talk about robotics

"What We Talk About When We Talk About Love" is a collection of short stories by American writer Raymond Carver. In his collection, he doesn't provide a direct definition of love but instead lets the perception of the nature of love form in the minds of the reader through narrating a series of short stories. This idea of perception leads me to my point. In my previous post, I highlighted the widespread reproducibility issues still haunting robotics research. These issues need to be fixed if we want to talk about Robotics as a science.
