He said "As more and more artificial intelligence is entering into the world, more and more emotional intelligence must enter into leadership."[10][11] Ray has used the term "compassionate social robot", which he defined as an autonomous physical agent that interacts with humans in social context like a human, on all fronts of emotions, intelligence, compassion and creativity.[12]
