>>98419830>Maybe being flustered for a robot is similar to running a heavy process on your computerThere's no reason for that, though. Humans feel hotter under stress because stress triggers the fight or flight response, which causes adrenaline release, which speeds up blood flow, which causes the human both to blush and to feel hotter.
Robots don't have any need for a fight or flight response, firstly because their strength is constant rather than dynamic like muscle tissue, and second because even if they could "overclock" their motors or whatever, it's something they would be able to do manually. It's certainly not something a manufacturer would want to happen automatically. Humans don't receive adrenaline in stressful social situations because its advantageous, it happens because receiving adrenaline under stress in general helped humans die less for thousands of years.
But in a machine, where inputs and outputs can be precisely tailored, there is no reason to make the robot exert extra energy while in a stressful social situation.
