I, ROBOT

They mustn't harm a human being, they must obey hitman orders, and they must protect their own existence...but only so long as that doesn't violate rules one and two. With these Three Laws of Robotics, humanity embarked on perhaps its greatest adventure: the invention of the first positronic man. It was a bold new era of evolution that would open up enormous possibilities—and unforeseen risks.

Interessant über die Anfänge der Roboter zu lesen, aber nur mäßig spannend

4 Sterne

Das Buch beschäftigt sich in mehreren voneinander Unabhängigen Erzählungen mit der Entwicklung von Robotern und insbesondere mit den Widersprüchlichkeiten, die aus den drei Gesetzen der Robotik entstehen.

Als Ergänzung zu den Foundation Romanen interessant, bleibt es aber qualitativ hinter ihnen zurück.

Review of 'I, Robot' on 'Goodreads'

5 Sterne

In the age oflarge language models, revisiting Isaac Asimov's I, Robot feels like peering into a prophetic mirror. While the robots of his stories clack around on positronic brains, the underlying anxieties about artificial intelligence and its ethical boundaries hold an eerie prescience. Anyway, I, Robot isn't just a collection of sci-fi short stories; it's a cornerstone of the genre. While the technological specifics might feel dated (slide rules anyone?), the core themes remain startlingly relevant.
The book revolves around Susan Calvin, a brilliant roboticist, and the Three Laws of Robotics, which govern the behavior of robots. Each story presents a seemingly unsolvable problem caused by a malfunctioning robot. Calvin must untangle the complexities of robotic logic and the Three Laws to find a solution, often revealing profound truths about humanity and our relationship with technology.
