Question

2. Isaac Asimov created the “Three Laws of Robotics” as a safety device to prevent this technology going awry in his robotic science fiction stories. Current roboticists do not consider these laws to have any real use in real robotics. Why? Briefly explain.

Answer 1

The three laws of Isaac Asimov are

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

2)A robot must obey orders given it by human beings,except where such orders would conflict with the first law

3)A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the first or second law

Any one of the laws can be achieved through automated machines.current robots dont consider these laws,especially in the defence we need armed robots,cruise missile robots to fight in the battle field,it cannot obey the first law.These days artificial intelligence is an emerging technology through which we can develop AI robots with self cognition.With self intelligence a robot may or may not obey the orders given by human beings.The third law is very dangerous one with this it can protect its own existence by disobeying the first or second law.With upcoming technologies a robot can think far more quicker than humans,it will definitely lead to human and robot wars,and we cannot fight with the things smarter than us.Those laws applicable only in fiction stories.
