Three Laws of Robotics
* A robot may not injure a human being, or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm. o "Runaround" in Astounding Science Fiction (March 1942); later published in I, Robot (1950). This statement is known as "The First Law of Robotics"
* A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law. o "Runaround" in Astounding Science Fiction (March 1942); later published in I, Robot (1950). This statement is known as "The Second Law of Robotics"
A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Laws. o "Runaround" in Astounding Science Fiction (March 1942); later published in I, Robot (1950). This statement is known as "The Third Law of Robotics"
How is it that a brilliant species like the Ancients didn't design their replicators to not attack any form of human, Ancient or not?
