论文摘要
性别/指导我们如何看待自己,周围的世界,彼此之间的看法 - 包括非人类。关键的声音引起了人们对社会体现的人造代理(例如语音助手,对话代理和机器人)设计的刻板印象的警报。然而,关于这在研究中的表现以及在何种程度上的表现知之甚少。作为第一步,我们批判性地审查了一种性别歧义的人形机器人的胡椒案。我们进行了涉及元合成和内容分析的系统综述(n = 75),研究了参与者和研究人员如何通过既定和未陈述的指示符和代词用法对胡椒进行性别性别。我们发现,胡椒性别的归属不一致,有限,有时是不一致的,几乎没有有意识的性别的证据,并且有一些研究人员对参与者性别的影响。我们提出了六个挑战,推动了事务状况,并实用了框架,再加上关键的清单,以对人工代理的研究进行居中。
Gender/ing guides how we view ourselves, the world around us, and each other--including non-humans. Critical voices have raised the alarm about stereotyped gendering in the design of socially embodied artificial agents like voice assistants, conversational agents, and robots. Yet, little is known about how this plays out in research and to what extent. As a first step, we critically reviewed the case of Pepper, a gender-ambiguous humanoid robot. We conducted a systematic review (n=75) involving meta-synthesis and content analysis, examining how participants and researchers gendered Pepper through stated and unstated signifiers and pronoun usage. We found that ascriptions of Pepper's gender were inconsistent, limited, and at times discordant, with little evidence of conscious gendering and some indication of researcher influence on participant gendering. We offer six challenges driving the state of affairs and a practical framework coupled with a critical checklist for centering gender in research on artificial agents.
