#HRI2025 is coming to a close: huge shout-out to the whole organization team, you've been incredible! I didn't think organising a large conference like #HRI could be fun: you proved it otherwise! Proud & glad to be part of this great academic community @hri-conference.bsky.social @wafaj.bsky.social

Here we go! #HRI2025 is off the a great start. Thousand thanks to @wafaj.bsky.social: it has been great fun to prepare the conference with you!

Kick off meeting of the #EU #MSCA doctoral network #MscaSweet -- we are opening 15 fully funded PhD grants, open to the whole world, on the topic of social AI for service robot. DM me if you arw interested/want more info. Boost welcome!

Spent the last days coding a simple #ROS 2 simulator for interaction/semantic reasoning/LLM-based chatbots. Fun to be looking back at the kind of stuff I was doing during my PhD 14+y ago 😅 all #opensource and #ros4hri compatible. Ping me if you want to play with a Docker image!
