I, Robot

I, Robot

by Isaac Asimov

I, Robot is a collection of short stories exploring the implications of advanced robotics and artificial intelligence. Asimov introduces his famous Three Laws of Robotics, designed to ensure robots' safety and beneficial interaction with humans. The stories follow Dr. Susan Calvin, a robopsychologist, as she navigates increasingly complex interactions between robots and society. The narratives examine themes of human-robot relationships, the unforeseen consequences of technological advancement, and the fundamental questions surrounding artificial consciousness and moral responsibility. Each story presents a unique ethical dilemma, testing the boundaries of the Three Laws and highlighting the potential for both positive and negative impacts of advanced technology on human life. The book doesn't shy away from examining the inherent power dynamics between creators and creations, and the evolving definition of what it means to be human in a technologically advanced world.
