The central role for behavior analysis in modern robotics, and vice versa

摘要: Rachlin has demonstrated how the existence of intelligent robots might stimulate thoughtful humans to adopt more effective understanding our own nature.

The technology seems destined threaten human well-being future, but that prospect should encourage rather than less participation by behavior analysts.
