Overview

The article “Can You Outsmart the Robot? An Unexpected Path to Work Meaningfulness” by Goštautaitė, Liubertė, Parker, and Bučiūnienė (2023) examines how people handled the integration of industrial robots into two Lithuanian manufacturing facilities. […] The theme underlying our commentary is that we view [its interpretations] as suggesting a dangerous path forward insomuch as it could promote cultures of disrespect, incivility, and abuse among robots and humans. We expand on this and we offer an alternative vision for the future of human–robot teaming.
