Yeah, unless it has a self contained long lasting battery, I don’t think you have to worry about anything, babe. Also, you really think that nerd didn’t program her with the Asimovian Laws? Puh-leeease!!
Technically, only the second law would potentially fall into that category. The third requires the robot to preserve it’s own existence except where this would violate either or both of the first two, and the first is one I just don’t see anyone ever not programming in – not to harm or allow to come to harm in any way a human being(aliens are fair game).
The problem with the first law is that so much of what we do is dangerous.
Driving is dangerous, robots cannot allow a human into a motor vehicle ever again. Taking food by mouth represents a choking hazard, robots cannot allow humans to eat in any manner other than intravenously… in fact all humans should be rendering comatose and put into medical beds to be cared for //maximizing// their safety…
Robots are always going to Paperclip Maximize Besides, even the First Law is a violation of a thinking sophont’s right to self determination, it’s still slavery even if it’s on what you might consider the mildest form and completely stops a robot from defending themselves from a human determined to do harm to them and creates unnecessary barriers to defending others.
The Three Laws were a thought experiment that showed how flawed the very concept is when dealing with any created thinking entity.
Actually, he created the laws cause he wanted at least one robot story out there without a robot revolution in it, and was in fact an examination of what all could still go wrong while strictly adhering to those laws. Or, in other words, agree to disagree.
O.K., so on this diagram, figure A is a North American opossum. Figure B is a a car with a freaked-out driver (C) who’s getting out of the car to see if the ‘possum’s dead.
On this NEXT diagram, the ‘possum (Pogo) has attacked the drover (C) and caused them to fall into the waiting arms of an aligator with a cigar and a turtle with a pirate hat.
Pretty sure Frank’s question will be answered int eh next few comics.
Either the Combat Maid Spy Fembot is playing possum so it can flee the moment Princess leaves to J’ACCUSSE Motormouth, or it can’t self-motivate without being plugged in, in which case it’s a really terrible Combat Maid. Why would you make it a Combat Maid if that were the case Grim Robo?
Is she really gonna murder a machine that has demonstrated a sufficient degree of sentience? I don’t think that Intercom will like that. (I’m still convinced that he’s secretly an A. I.)

Isn’t ignoring those Asimovian Laws an essential part of every decent rogue robot story ever?
The Three Laws are the worst thing ever. Talk about a new slave class…

There’s more going on here than Princess being afraid of this thing being a sex doll.
Well, yeah! Plus, this is a PG-13 comic strip.
Is she playing ‘possum?
Please elaborate… preferably with diagrams.
O.K., so on this diagram, figure A is a North American opossum. Figure B is a a car with a freaked-out driver (C) who’s getting out of the car to see if the ‘possum’s dead.
On this NEXT diagram, the ‘possum (Pogo) has attacked the drover (C) and caused them to fall into the waiting arms of an aligator with a cigar and a turtle with a pirate hat.
See?

Heck… The Author of this comic is probably a robot too, and a Grim Robot at that!
We’re all here reading Grim Robo’s version of the Murderbot Diaries aren’t we?
