The Role of Robots in Modern Society
In his 1942 short story, run around from his iRobot collection, Azimov proposed the three laws of robotics in order, don't harm humans, obey orders, protect yourself. Engel: If Roomba follows the three laws, and I believe it does, it is designed to help humans not hurt them. And we designed it to last a long time. It's not through any AI or intent on the robots part. It's because following the three laws is aligned with being a good robot product. But not by explicit design.
