CONFERENCE - HÜSNÜ YEĞENOĞLU

In which fields and roles will android robots—which mimic humans physically and behaviorally—become increasingly important in the future? Will robots be used more and more in healthcare facilities, nursing homes and retirement communities, educational settings, new types of vertical farms, hybrid data centers, hedonistic activities, and, most importantly, new types of mixed-use spaces? Will advanced robots evolve into intelligent cyborgs—half-human, half-machine? Will the increasing interaction between humans and robots lead to dystopian or utopian spatial narratives?

WORKSHOP - HÜSNÜ YEĞENOĞLU

In which fields will humanoid robots that mimic humans become indispensable in the future? Will they play a greater role in healthcare, nursing homes, education, vertical farms, and even entertainment? What if advanced robots evolve into cyborgs—half-human, half-machine? Could human-robot interaction lead to utopian or dystopian scenarios?
