oct 8, 1941 - The Three Laws of Robotics

Description:

The Three Laws of Robotics was first introduced in a short story called "Liar" published by Isaac Asimov in the May issue of Astounding Science Fiction. The three laws of robotics are:

A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.

A robot must obey the orders given to it by human beings, except where such orders would conflict the First Law.

A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Laws.

These laws were thought to be the first known use to the term "Robotics".
