Emotions in the models of Artificial Intelligence (original) (raw)

This paper investigates the aspects and interpretations of emotions, which might contribute to creating intelligent systems. Recent findings in different scientific disciplines suggest a new view of the relationship between cognitive processes and emotions. Emotions are no longer seen as mental qualities that limit rationality. It is now understood that emotions play a critical role in intelligent behavior and offer a great potential for designing artificial agents and more natural and expressive interactive technologies.
