To celebrate the 100th anniversary of the first staging of Karl Capek’s play R.U.R. – the play that gave the world the word ‘robot’, and proved to be a template for so many of our future stories about robots since – I wrote a piece for The Conversation‘s Insights series (which meant I got a good, longer go at explaining some of my ideas on the topic).

I’m really grateful to The Conversation’s editorial team, especially Josephine Lethbridge, for their tremendous support and ideas.
