Why would the situation be any different than a person or traditional recording equipment doing those things?
If you want to live with observers, you have always had to accept that they can be used in court.
- rebootthesystem 10y agoI'll let an attorney answer this. I think there's a huge difference. Part of it being that, as far as I know, there's no case law for the scenario of a robot being a part of a person's daily life while recording data from an array of sensors, including vision and sound.
- SomeStupidPoint 10y agoBut how are robot sensors different than if I choose to have, eg security cameras around my house or a maid doing the cleaning? In fact, the robot sounds exactly like a live in maid, who can already be compelled to testify on my activities. Both the camera footage and maid testimony can be demanded by the courts, so why would a hybrid of the two be different?
- rebootthesystem 10y agoI think you might be confusing logical thinking with the way the legal system works. I hope an attorney on HN can comment on this. Happy to be wrong but I don't think I am, at least not massively wrong.
