Researchers with the University of Florida say yes. > "There are no fundamental guiding principles for how to build an effective working relationship between robots and humans," said Eakta Jain, an associate professor of computer and information science and engineering at UF's Herbert Wertheim College of Engineering. "As we work to improve how humans interact with autonomous vehicles and other forms of AI, it occurred to me that we've done this before with horses. This relationship has existed for millennia but was never leveraged to provide insights for human-robot interaction."
