Isaac Asimov’s Three Laws of Robotics
The First Law: A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
The Second Law: A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
The Third Law: A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.

Richard and Dave take a look at the appearances of robots, androids, and cyborgs in popular culture and ask themselves the six million dollar question: Are they more likely to help us, or eat our lunch? Dave fulminates about unconscionable profit margins.
