About

Dr. Emma Chee is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of human-robot interaction (HRI) and computational creativity. Her work focuses on how humans engage with embodied creative systems—robots and AI that generate art, music, or design—and the unique psychological and relational dynamics that emerge from these collaborations. Her most cited paper, "Evaluating Human-Robot Interaction with Embodied Creative Systems" (2013, 11 citations), lays foundational groundwork for understanding the ambiguous power relations between human and machine creators. This research is critical as creative AI becomes more autonomous and integrated into daily life. Dr. Chee’s contributions help shape how we design interactive systems that are not only functional but also socially and emotionally resonant. Her work has been cited by scholars in robotics, cognitive science, and human-computer interaction, underscoring its cross-disciplinary impact. By foregrounding the human experience in creative HRI, Dr. Chee is helping to define a new frontier in how we collaborate with intelligent machines.
