Asimov's laws of robotics (Glossary)

Artificial intelligence Digital society Automation Digital transformation Robots Sanjay Sauldie Glossary

Asimov's robot laws originate from the field of "artificial intelligence", "robots" and "digital society". They were developed by the famous science fiction author Isaac Asimov in his stories to define rules for the behaviour of intelligent machines and robots. The three laws are intended to ensure that robots do not harm humans and remain trustworthy.

The first law states that a robot may not harm humans or allow humans to come to harm through inaction. The second law obliges robots to obey the commands of humans, unless such commands contradict the first law. The third law guarantees the robot's self-protection as long as this protection does not conflict with the first two laws.

A simple example: A domestic robot vacuums dust in a flat. It refuses to clean an open socket even though a resident asks it to do so because it would be risky and someone could get hurt. In this way, the robot practically implements Asimov's laws of robotics.

These laws were primarily intended as food for thought on how we should design and use artificial intelligence and robots responsibly.
