Robot, just clean the floor - Sunday Times - Times Online
A rush to stay ahead of the robots;
develop a “code of ethics” for these machines.
Should we worry?
Well, do what you want to do. Al Gore can make us worry, but will we do anything?
For me and my house, we will take definite charge of our robots (we only have five right now)!

This article makes these suggestions:
Keeping control
New robo-ethics recommendations:
- Safety -- Ensure human control of robot
- Security -- Prevent wrong or illegal use
- Privacy -- Protect data held by robot
- Traceability -- Record robot’s activity
- Identifiability -- Give unique ID to each robot
Isaac Asimov’s laws of robotics (Asimov's home page):
- Robot may not injure human or, through inaction, allow human to come to harm
- Robot must obey human orders, unless they conflict with first law
- Robot must protect itself if this does not conflict with other laws
How about you and your robot(s)?
