3 Laws Unsafe

"3 Laws Unsafe will be a website campaign from the Singularity Institute. The campaign will tie in to the July 16th release of 'I, Robot,' the feature film based on Isaac Asimov's short story collection of the same name where his 3 Laws of Robotics were first introduced.

The 3 Laws of Robotics represent a popular view of how to construct moral AI, and their failures were often explored by Isaac Asimov in his stories. What we hope to do is advance the Asimov tradition of deconstructing the 3 Laws. We want to encourage critical, technical thinking on whether they're real solutions to moral AI creation.

To achieve a successful campaign, the benefits of which will be large, requires help from many. If you can contribute to 3 Laws Unsafe, please email us at institute@singinst.org. We also invite you to join our volunteers mailing list where campaign discussion will occur; and to use our internal Wiki, the URL of which is available on request."
