By the way ,earlier this year the Prime minister of Japan met with Czech P.M Vladimir Spidia. Japan P.M was acompagnied by "ASIMO" First Japanese diplomatic Robot. Asimo adressed in Czech,"Here I am in the Czech Republic where the word ROBOT was invented".
That is great! I hope others have noted that the robot's name was a tribute to Isaac Asimov, whose contribution to Science Fiction includes that which is necessary to actually use an independent robot.
Isaac Asimov's "Three Laws of Robotics"
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.
'Zeroth Law' 0. A robot may not injure humanity, or, through inaction, allow humanity to come to harm.
A condition stating that the Zeroth Law must not be broken was added to the original Laws. The Zeroth Law, of course, is placed at the top of the list of the Laws of Robotics.
