| Who do you blame if a drone mis-fires and kills an innocent -- the programmer, the operational commander, the commander of the air wing? Current drones like the Predator do little 'thinking' on their own, but the new drones such as the X-47B will create legal issues. At least according to the lawyers... |
What about the following?:
1. A drone robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
2. A drone robot must obey any orders given to it by human beings, except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
3. A drone robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.
Hmm. Guess that might not work. Oh well. Thanks anyway, Mr. Asimov! |
| As long as we define jihadis as 'not human' this might work... |
