About

Taylan Sen is a forward-looking researcher whose work bridges the critical intersection of artificial intelligence, human-robot interaction, and the societal integration of autonomous systems. His research primarily explores how virtual assistants and robots are being woven into the fabric of daily life, addressing both the visionary potential and the profound technical and ethical challenges this transformation entails. Sen’s most influential contribution, the 2019 paper “Manifestation of virtual assistants and robots into daily life: vision and challenges,” has garnered 56 citations, serving as a foundational reference for scholars examining the real-world deployment of AI agents. In this work, he systematically maps the gap between current technological capabilities and the seamless, intuitive interactions users expect, highlighting key hurdles in natural language understanding, context awareness, and user trust. By framing these challenges not as insurmountable barriers but as design opportunities, Sen has helped shape a more pragmatic and human-centered research agenda. His insights are particularly valuable for students and engineers seeking to understand the socio-technical dynamics that will define the next generation of assistive technologies, from smart home devices to collaborative robots.
