The fields of robotics and artificial intelligence have fascinated scientists and non-scientists alike for decades. Once primarily explored through science fiction, robots and AI are increasingly a part of our daily life. From robotic vacuum cleaners and self-driving vehicles to robotic interventions for autism and virtual health coaching, these technologies are reshaping our lives and have broad implications for the future. Join the American Association for the Advancement of Science's program of Dialogue on Science, Ethics, and Religion (AAAS|DoSER) for an exciting two-part discussion of forefront research and its societal implications. This panel is sponsored by AAAS|DoSER. Lauren Markoe • Maithilee Kunda • Nilanjan Sarkar • Paul Scherz
