{{Short description|Robotics}}
{{Robotic laws}} '''Laws of robotics''' are any set of laws, rules, or principles, which are intended as a fundamental framework to underpin the behavior of [[robot]]s designed to have a degree of [[autonomy]]. Robots of this degree of complexity do not yet exist, but they have been widely anticipated in [[science fiction]], [[movie|films]] and are a topic of active [[research and development]] in the fields of [[robotics]] and [[artificial intelligence]].
Line 13 ⟶ 14:
# A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Laws.<ref>{{cite book|last=Asimov|first=Isaac|title=I, Robot|date=1950}}</ref>
In "[[The Evitable Conflict]]" the machines generalize the First Law to mean:
# No machine may harm humanity; or, through inaction, allow humanity to come to harm.
This was refined in the end of ''[[Foundation and Earth]]''
{{ordered list|start=0|A robot may not injure humanity, or, by inaction, allow humanity to come to harm.}}
Adaptations and extensions exist based upon this framework. {{As of

The 1974 [[Lyuben Dilov]] novel, ''Icarus's Way'' (a.k.a., ''The Trip of Icarus'') introduced a Fourth Law of robotics: "A robot must establish its identity as a robot in all cases." ▼
Dilov gives reasons for the fourth safeguard in this way: "The last Law has put an end to the expensive aberrations of designers to give psychorobots as humanlike a form as possible. And to the resulting misunderstandings...".<ref>{{cite book▼

== EPSRC / AHRC principles of robotics ==
Line 39 ⟶ 67:
# We should consider the ethics of transparency: are there limits to what should be openly available?
# When we see erroneous accounts in the press, we commit to take the time to contact the reporting journalists.
The EPSRC principles are broadly recognised as a useful starting point. In 2016 Tony Prescott organised a workshop to revise these principles, e.g. to differentiate ethical from legal principles.<ref>{{cite journal|date=2017|title=Legal vs. ethical obligations – a comment on the EPSRC's principles for robotics|url=https://philpapers.org/rec/MLLLVE|journal=Connection Science|doi=10.1080/09540091.2016.1276516|author=Müller, Vincent C.|volume=29 |issue=2 |pages=137–141 |bibcode=2017ConSc..29..137M |s2cid=19080722 }}</ref>

Line 50 ⟶ 78:
# "A.I. must maximize efficiencies without destroying the dignity of people."
# "A.I. must be designed for intelligent privacy" meaning that it earns trust through guarding their information.
# "A.I. must have algorithmic accountability so that humans can undo unintended harm."
# "A.I. must guard against bias" so that they must not discriminate against people.

[[Mark W. Tilden]] is a robotics physicist who was a pioneer in developing simple robotics.<ref name=wired1>{{cite magazine| url=https://www.wired.com/wired/archive/2.09/tilden.html?pg=1&topic= | magazine=Wired | first=Fred | last=Hapgood | title=Chaotic Robotics | issue = 9 | date = September 1994| volume=2 }}</ref>
Tilden # A robot must protect its existence at all costs.

# A robot must continually search for better power sources.
