4		-Anna and Peter discuss and reach the conclusion that an autonomous assistant for Mary would be the best solution for the problems. They decide to use a humanoid robot, which would live with Mary and remind her of her daily tasks. As there are sometimes events that Mary needs to attend, and days when she should do different activities, the reminders robot should be customizable. When the robot is first introduced to Mary, she has the opportunity to pick some music pieces to associate with the reminders. Rather than having someone (the robot) tell her what to do, this could be only implied by the music played. There is, of course, the issue that Mary now has to remember the music, but this can also happen over time, and the robot will also try to help her make and reinforce this link. During day-to-day life, the robot plays the music when the task needs to be done, and asks Mary about the corresponding activity, after which she can confirm whether or not she has done it already. Mary can also play with the robot, in order to get better at memorizing the music associated with tasks.

	10	+**Anna** employs a robot to coordinate the recreational activities. She turns on the robot and introduces it to the group members. Then she describes the activities the robot will do today and lets the robot coordinate the activities. Now **Anna** has time to participate and pay attention to the group dynamics, and the emotional well-being of the people in the group. For **Mary**, the robot becomes a point of discussion with the other people in the group. The questions and activities proposed by the robot provide a common ground for conversation and entertainment. She is happy that **Anna** notices when **Mary** wants to say something and redirects the attention of the group towards her, so she can tell the group about that one time, she sneaked out of her window to dance with her late husband.
