I, Robot: Review

I Robot is about the three laws of robotics(see previous post.) It showed how each of the laws work, but also how they can be circumvented, or worked around, and how even slight tampering of them is potentially catastrophic. It is also about how many errors robots appear to make are actually human errors, when we feed them the wrong information. The best story by far was of this mining robot, who was in charge of six other robots, or "fingers". This meant that he had two three-fingered hands. Every time there was an emergency he would freak out, and then sit there twiddling his thumbs, so four robots stayed still, and the other two either spun around or jumped up-and-down.
