Robots of this degree of complexity do not yet exist, but they have been widely anticipated in science fiction , films and are a topic of active research and ...
As in many of Asimov's Robot stories, conflicts in the application of the Three Laws of Robotics is the subject of the plot.In contrast to the majority of such stories, in which the lexical ambiguities of the Laws are employed to fashion a dilemma, the robot featured in "Runaround" is actually following the Laws as they were intended.

Though still under human authority, Isaac Asimov's Zeroth Law of the Three Laws of Robotics similarly implied a benevolent guidance by robots. [31] In the 21st century, science fiction has explored government by algorithm, in which the power of AI may be indirect and decentralised. [32]
