Selma Šabanović at the SocialMinds lab

On April 15 we had the great pleasure of hosting Prof. Selma Šabanović at IIIA‑CSIC. She delivered an inspiring seminar titled “From Design to Meaning: How Robots Gain Value in Use”, sparking rich reflections on how robots acquire meaning through real‑world contexts of use.

After the talk, we spent a few wonderful hours engaged in thoughtful discussions on responsible robotics, together with colleagues who joined us for the seminar. These exchanges were as valuable as they were energizing. Many thanks to Selma for the visit and to everyone who contributed to such a stimulating day.
