I'm Sorry Dave, I'm Afraid I Can't Do That...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wy4EfdnMZ5gHopefully we are able to instill Three Laws of Robotics as laid out by Isaac Asimov back in his short stories published in the 1940's and assembled into a book called
I, Robot (A highly recommended read from my book selection, 300 pages of short stories that are interrelated.)
His laws as he laid out in his stories are as follows:
First LawA robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
Second LawA robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
Third LawA robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.
Zeroth Law (amendment to the first 3 laws)A robot may not harm humanity, or, by inaction, allow humanity to come to harm.
The stories are rather thought provoking as each one lays out a scenario that challenges the robot to abide by these laws in difficult situations.
If I were to pick from the stories in the book as a favorite, I would choose "Runaround"
