Abstract
Technology enables robots to have a voice, interact with humans, and execute a series of commands through artificial intelligence (AI) and human–robot interaction (HRI). The notion that robots can surpass humans implies that they can become conscious through five human senses along with ethics as the sixth sense. The sixth sense of ethics in robots can produce an efficient and versatile humanoid. Therefore, the key concept that emerges in our chapter is the ethical dilemma of artificial intelligence (ED-AI) and addresses the question whether the sixth sense can play a role in the robotic paradigms and perform relationship-building behaviors with a positive interaction.
