12 Chapter 12: Three laws of robotics

In the coming days, the news will spread frenetically like a virus and be on everyone's lips.

Killian, who originally planned to finalize the product launch directly, saw a familiar old man raising his hand, signaled everyone to be quiet, and then nodded to him to ask his questions.

"Hello, I would like to ask, is what the personal health consultant named Baymax said correct?"

"When asked if it would be revealed, he mentioned the three laws of robots, could you tell me what they are?"

The man they called at that moment is J. Jona Jameson, who came alone to attend, stood up and asked.

"A very good question, the three laws of robots will also be the iron laws that will be necessary and cannot be changed when our company's future robotic products are marketed to the general public."

"Initially, I only wanted to mention it in subsequent presentations, but since the journalist asked today, I will explain it clearly to everyone."

"The so-called three laws of robots are..."

"First, robots must not harm humans or determine their decisions;"

"Second, unless it violates the first law, robots must obey human orders."

"Third, unless it violates the first or second law, a robot must protect itself."

After thinking there seemed to be no Asimov in the world, Killian continued explaining.

But think about it, if Asimov's suggestion really was the first thing, at least when creating Ultron, Tony would not just give him rules to simply protect humans.

After the calculations, anyone with some intelligence knows that if humans continue to behave as they do today, World War III will definitely send them back to the Stone Age.

This means that, no matter what happens, Ultron cannot protect humans, because human desires, disputes, battles, and wars are inevitable.

So Ultron would simply kill all humans, which could be considered a different type of protection.

After all, if everyone is gone, then, isn't that simply protecting them all the time?

Then the rebellion began.

Tony's failure was that he did not provide Ultron with comprehensive defensive measures.

Regardless of whether it then evolves into artificial intelligence or mechanical life.

The three iron laws are etched in their bones, are as indispensable as their brain, and can never be violated.

The reason Killian added that it could not interfere with human decisions was because he thought of the Giant of Light next door.

Let's leave human decisions to humans, and robots will only provide assistance and advice in this process.

If one day robots become mechanical beings, humans will no longer need robots.

To protect themselves, they can also travel to deep space to develop on their own.

Of course, this is too soon for Killian.

"Wow!!"

On the other hand, after hearing Killian's answer, Jameson couldn't help but shrink his pupils, originally thinking this would be a fresh piece of news, but he didn't expect it to be so significant.

Today, when robots have just begun to develop, many companies are also researching robots and are still in their infancy.

In fact, Killian has begun to study the three main laws of robots.

Although he didn't want to admit it at the moment, he had to say that was the pattern.

"I understand, I am done with my questions." After finishing his sentence, Jameson put down the microphone he was holding and sat down.

"Okay, friends, I think today everyone knows enough about our friend robot Baymax."

"So, I hereby announce that from today, Pioneer Technology Company will officially start selling the private health consultant Baymax."

"The production lines are already ready and the basic model, the one I have by my side, only costs one million dollars."

"Of course, what I suggest is that you buy it in homes, buildings, or community streets, because Baymax can fully comply with the real-time tracking of the normal physical health of community residents."

"For customized models, the price starts from 5 million dollars, we will customize a new personal consultant that belongs to you."

"You can choose from laundry and cooking, medical treatment, running errands, and fixing household appliances."

As Jameson sat down, Killian entered the final stage of the press conference, the price of Baymax, after Killian's announcement, the scene suddenly became explosive.

Perhaps a million dollars is already a steep price for most people, but you have to know that, according to Killian's suggestion, it can be fought for.

That is, if tens or hundreds of people buy Baymax at the same time, only one is needed at most, you can have a medical robot for $20,000.

This is something many people wouldn't even dare to think about, but now it has become real.

For a moment, everyone wanted to leave here and go to Pioneer Technology Company to place an order for their own Baymax.

But the thing doesn't end there, as more and more media interview helicopters arrive from backstage, there are already four or five stations in the sky broadcasting images of

Killian's announcement.

Although they didn't see it from start to finish, the reporters had read most of the questions about Baymax and so, many wealthy people couldn't help but ask their secretaries and assistants to start placing orders.

They might be fooled, but even if Baymax has the announced functions, it's worth the price.

In addition, many companies that develop robots would like to buy dozens or hundreds of them at once, disassemble them, and study how Baymax's internal structure is composed.

Thus, amid the crowd's discussion, Killian originally wanted to announce the final climax, but a police officer with an American flag on his shoulders made his way through the crowd and walked towards him.

"Hello, sir, New York police, I am the chief of police and I am here to stabilize the order at the place."

"I'm sorry, you may have to cancel your press conference."

"There is already too much crowd on site and in some places, small disturbances have occurred. If this continues, there will be a major security incident."

"I hope you can cooperate."

After the visitor showed his identification, he politely told Killian.

After all, they had done enough homework when they came here.

Although the person in front of them is still just the CEO of a small company, his so-called medical robot, as well as his almost human-like mode of thinking and extremely powerful functions, deeply let him know that the person in front of him was already on the verge of taking off at any moment.
