Tilden's Law of Robotics

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Mark W. Tilden created his Law of Robotics as a response to Isaac Asimov's Three Laws of Robotics.[1] They are as  :

  1. A robot must protect its existence at all costs.
  2. A robot must obtain and maintain access to its own power source.
  3. A robot must continually search for better power sources.

These are also informally known as:

  1. Protect thy ass.
  2. Feed thy ass.
  3. Move thy ass to better real estate.
