In this video we talk about the Zeroth Law of Robotics, the addendum to Isaac Asimov's Three Law of Robotics and humanities quest for finding other forms for intelligence . Going over the final short story from the compilation book "I, Robot" in narrative form.

As humanities engineers artificial intelligence and machine learning software and tools, we are going to have to consider how can we ensure successful cooperation with them. As companies like Boston Dynamics and Vex improve our engineering for robotic beings. How can we make sure that robots and artificial intelligences work along side humanity and not against us? Will we have a fruitful integration with the inevitable waves of automation hits us?

"I, Robot" is the first book in Asimov's famous Robot series. "The Evitable Conflict" is the final short story in the novel, which is a compilation of short stories, and talks about the conflict between human and computer global governance in the near future. I highly recommend reading Asimov's Robot series, they are a fantastic and imaginative sci fi read, and sets the foundation for a lot of sci fi movies and stories that came after it.

In "The Evitable Conflict" it is discovered that the robots were not just following the Three Laws of Robotics, but had created a new law, the Zeroth Law of Robotics.

Isaac Asimov is considered to be one of the giants of Scifi, and a prolific author in various fields. Russian - American, wrote from the 1940s until the 80s. Famous for "The Foundation" and "The Robot" series of sci fi novels, serving as inspiration for so many generations of sci fi that came after his works.

Visuals draw from different video games like "Horizon Zero Dawn" and "Detroit Becoming Human", most of the movie clips are from the Sci Fi Action movie "Kill Command"
