The Three Laws of Robotics

The Three Laws of Robotics, conceptualized by science fiction writer Isaac Asimov, are guidelines for robot behavior. First, a robot must not harm humans or allow harm through inaction. Second, a robot must obey human commands unless these conflict with the first law. Third, a robot must protect its own existence as long as it doesn’t conflict with the first two laws. These principles aim to ensure robots act safely and ethically around people, emphasizing that human safety and authority come first, followed by robot obedience and self-preservation.
