TESTING THE FUTURE... We discovered that the answer is to actually give machines more autonomy, if it helps people to work together more fluently with robot teammates, said project lead Matthew Gombolay. The study was composed of groups of two humans and one robot, working in three test conditions. One had all tasks allocated by a human, another where all tasks were allocated by the robot and the final scenario had one human allocating tasks to themselves, while the robot allocated tasks to the other meatsack. Researchers found that when the robot was on top, not only was the group most effective, but the human workers also preferred it, saying that the robots choices apparently better understood them. engadget/2014/08/25/whos-the-robot-boss/
