Robot Dreams

PROLIFIC sci-fi novelist Isaac Asimov invented the famous Three Laws of Robotics: 1. A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm. 2. A robot must obey any orders given to it by human beings, except where such orders would conflict with the First Law. 3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law. Asimov once said, "Part of the inhumanity of the computer is that, once it is competently programmed and working smoothly, it is completely honest." Deep thought.
