Based on Isaac Asimov's book, I, Robot is a new movie with Will Smith.
I have read Asimov since I was 9 years old, one of my favourite sci-fi writers.
The Three Laws according to the movie trailer. (shortened for impact!)
- They cannot hurt us
- they must do what we say
- they can protect themselves
According to the book they are actually phrazed like these below (pay attention to no.3 as it is left out in the movie trailer):
- 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.
