About

Jorre Deschuyteneer is a researcher at the intersection of human-robot interaction, cybersecurity, and ethics, with a focus on the vulnerabilities of social robots. His most cited work, "Security Risks of Social Robots Used to Persuade and Manipulate" (2020, 10 citations), investigates how robots that naturally elicit social compliance can be hacked and weaponized for malicious persuasion. Through proof-of-concept studies, Deschuyteneer demonstrates the alarming potential for attackers to exploit robotic trust, highlighting critical gaps in current security frameworks. This contribution has been instrumental in shaping discussions on robot ethics and safety, particularly in contexts where robots are deployed in homes, schools, or care settings. By bridging robotics and cybersecurity, Deschuyteneer’s work underscores the urgent need for robust safeguards against manipulation, earning recognition among scholars concerned with the darker implications of social AI. His research serves as a cautionary foundation for developing more resilient and ethically designed autonomous systems.
