Researchers found people feel joint agency with robots seen as intentional agents, likely due to shared sensory predictions.
Findings showed that individuals experienced a sense of joint agency with the robot when it was portrayed as purposeful, but not when seen as mechanical.Researchers have conducted an experiment demonstrating that people experience a Sense of Joint Agency with a robot partner when the robot is presented as an intentional agent rather than as a mechanical artifact.
Additionally, their programmable behaviors offer higher experimental control. Humanoid robots can manipulate factors such as perceived socialness or intentionality, which isn’t possible with humans. Previous literature hints that attributing intentionality to an interaction partner might be crucial for the emergence of the Sense of Joint Agency , particularly with artificial agents. However, no systematic investigation has been conducted on this issue.
