Yet another example of a possible sci-fi future becoming reality. This ABC article reports on South Korea's proposal to issue a Robot Ethics Charter.


“…the guidelines are expected to reflect laws put forward by Isaac Asimov in his 1942 short story Runaround.

obey human orders unless they conflict with the first law; and robots
must protect themselves if this does not conflict with the other laws.”
