Ah, if only he were around to see it. Engineers at the University of Pisa are looking at how they can design new robots that will comply with Asimov’s Laws.
The robots developed by Phriends will be intrinsically safe, since the safety is guaranteed by their very physical structure, and not by external sensors or algorithms that can fail.
Of course much of the SF written about Asimov’s Laws since they were first formulated has looked at ways in which they can be circumvented.

I hope they’re paying attention to that or, at least, the lessons to be learned from the internet. Abusing or circumventing technology is a hobby to some and a strategic purpose of others.
