As a foundation, the author examines arguments for and against intimate relationships with robots, particularly sex robots and care robots. Moreover, the book provides a consideration of human-robot interactions and philosophical reflections about robots through the lens of magic and magical thinking as well as theoretical and practical re-evaluations of their status and presence. Furthermore, the author discusses the abovementioned issues in the context of disenchantment and re-enchantment of the world, characterizing modernity as a coexistence of these two processes. The book closes with a consideration of future scenarios regarding the meaning of life in the age of rampant automation and the possibility that designing robots becomes a sortof new eugenics as a consequence of recognizing robots as persons. 410 0$aSocial and Cultural Studies of Robots and AI,$x2523-8531 606 $aScience$xSocial aspects 606 $aCognitive psychology 606 $aDevelopmental psychology 606 $aArtificial intelligence 606 $aAutomatic control 606 $aRobotics 606 $aAutomation 606 $aScience and Technology Studies 606 $aCognitive Psychology 606 $aDevelopmental Psychology 606 $aArtificial Intelligence 606 $aControl, Robotics, Automation 615 0$aScience$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aCognitive psychology. 615 0$aDevelopmental psychology. 615 0$aArtificial intelligence. 615 0$aAutomatic control. 615 0$aRobotics. 615 0$aAutomation. 615 14$aScience and Technology Studies. 615 24$aCognitive Psychology. 615 24$aDevelopmental Psychology. 615 24$aArtificial Intelligence. 615 24$aControl, Robotics, Automation. 676 $a629.8924019 676 $a303.4834 700 $aMusia?$b Maciej$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01040171 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910337669003321 996 $aEnchanting Robots$92462824 997 $aUNINA
