“…Even the hardware that is related to the AI only captures the input data and deliver the output data from the AI system, as illustrated in Figure 2. One example is the Smart Home [16] supported by Amazon's Alexa speech assistant [17]. In [1], Miriyev and Kovac proposed the concept of Digital Artificial Intelligence (DIAI) that refers to the current popular data-based and date-processing AI.…”

Artificial Intelligence has been a growth catalyst to our society and is cosidered across all idustries as a fundamental technology. However, its development has been limited to the signal processing domain that relies on the generated and collected data from other sensors. In recent research, concepts of Digital Artificial Intelligence and Physicial Artifical Intelligence have emerged and this can be considered a big step in the theoretical development of Artifical Intelligence. In this paper we explore the concept of Physicial Artifical Intelligence and propose two subdomains: Integrated Physicial Artifical Intelligence and Distributed Physicial Artifical Intelligence. The paper will also examine the trend and governance of Physicial Artifical Intelligence.

“…Within and beyond Japan, there is a dire need to improve the user experience (UX) of VAs. Common issues include poor speech recognition and conversational ability [1,14,15], limited activities and poor fit with different user groups [4,[16][17][18], and a misguided focus on commercial functionality [19]. A critical barrier specific to VAs is how to start and end the interaction using voice alone: the dialogic design.…”

Voice assistants (VAs) are becoming a feature of our everyday life. Yet, the user experience (UX) is often limited, leading to underuse, disengagement, and abandonment. Co-designing interactions for VAs with potential end-users can be useful. Crowdsourcing this process online and anonymously may add value. However, most work has been done in the English-speaking West on dialogue data sets. We must be sensitive to cultural differences in language, social interactions, and attitudes towards technology. Our aims were to explore the value of co-designing VAs in the non-Western context of Japan and demonstrate the necessity of cultural sensitivity. We conducted an online elicitation study (N=135) where Americans (n=64) and Japanese people (n=71) imagined dialogues (N=282) and activities (N=73) with future VAs. We discuss the implications for coimagining interactions with future VAs, offer design guidelines for the Japanese and English-speaking US contexts, and suggest opportunities for cultural plurality in VA design and scholarship.
