The MAI: A Robot for/by Everyone

Published:01 March 2018Publication History

ABSTRACT

Humans are dependent upon specific information to fulfill their needs, which suffices their social existence. Due to advancement in technology, humans try to satisfy their social needs through smart devices. However, these devices are not able to completely justify the human needs and humans strive for companionship to combat loneliness. We propose to design a robot (MAI) that can monitor, assist and interact with humans for their better livelihood.
