15. I, Robot (2004)
• Asimov’s three laws of robotics
A robot may not injure a human
being or, through inaction, allow a
human being to come to harm.
A robot must obey the orders
given to it by human beings,
except where such orders would
conflict with the First Law.
A robot must protect its own
existence as long as such
protection does not conflict with
the First or Second Laws.
For a short story that shows
the silliness of these laws,
see Cory Doctorow’s short
story, also called “I, Robot.”
