![]() ![]() The Three Laws, presented to be from the fictional "Handbook of Robotics, 56th Edition, 2058 A.D.", are: First Law Ī robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.Ī robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.Ī robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law. The rules were introduced in his 1942 short story " Runaround" (included in the 1950 collection I, Robot), although similar restrictions had been implied in earlier stories. The Three Laws of Robotics (often shortened to The Three Laws or Asimov's Laws) are a set of rules devised by science fiction author Isaac Asimov, which were to be followed by robots in several of his stories. This cover of I, Robot illustrates the story "Runaround", the first to list all Three Laws of Robotics. ![]()
