Before I start my first robot miniature I thought it
necessary to institute certain policies for this robot. What a better choice
than 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 orders given 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 Law. "
I, Robot is a collection of nine science fiction short
stories by Isaac Asimov. I read I Robot many years ago, but I still remember
how the text begins. The "Three Laws of Robotics" were presented at
the very beginning. The nine stories that followed tell how things play out
when a robot is confronted with situations that test these three laws. It is a
very interesting treatise on the topic.
