?Chapter 387: Chapter 386: Serves You Right Chapter 387: Chapter 386: Serves You Right “Human falling in love with robots? That’s easy,” Wang Hao chuckled, saying, “The story begins with humans falling in love with robots. The vast universe never finds its kind; myriad beings forever unable to communicate. Where we come from and where we go remain unclear. To be or not to be is still a question. Until cold metal was endowed with boundless thought, nothing else mattered.”

“Parents bought robot children, and my mommy no longer had to worry about my studies. Lonely hearts purchased robot girlfriends, who on countless solitary nights were there to… well, you know.”

Hearing his amusing tale, the students immediately burst into laughter.

“Women hired robot P-designers, and friends’ social feeds were bombarded with goddesses. Men dated robot mistresses, with no more cheating in the world. All of mankind’s significant matters were thus undertaken by robots, and for safety, humans set three laws for the robots. First, a robot must not harm humans, nor, through inaction, allow a human to come to harm. Second, a robot must obey the orders given by humans, except where such orders would conflict with the first law. Third, a robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the first or second law.”

“Speaking of which, this next part is very important.” Wang Hao smiled at the entire class and said, “Thinking logically, what would happen next?”

The students looked at each other, not knowing what would occur.

“This should be fine, right?” They thought for a while, then collectively shook their heads, “No problem here!”

“You see, this is where experience matters,” Wang Hao continued, “So here’s the problem. What does a robot do in a gunfight between cops and robbers? According to the first law, the robot must not stand by when humans are harmed, so it has to intervene. If it helps the police, it hurts the robbers, and if it helps the robbers, it hurts the police. Therefore, no matter what it does, it ultimately harms humans, violating the first law.”

A student slapped his thigh, “Right! How did I not think of that?!”
