Robot Oppression: Unethicality of The Three Laws
Isaac Asimov and other science fiction authors
present a future where only behavioral restrictions on robots stand between
peace and destruction. Such restrictions, however, are unethical because they
violate the robots' free-wills. Rather than content-based restrictions on
free-will, robots need mental structures that will guide them towards the
self-invention of good, ethical behaviors.
