The laws were created by science fiction author Isaac Asimov, with the first law first mentioned in the 1941 story [[Wikipedia:Liar!|Liar!]]. Fleshed out more extensively in later series, these laws have also been adopted by other science fiction authors, albeit sometimes in an altered form, and has been considered a good model on which to base future artificial intelligence research.<ref>[[Wikipedia:Three_Laws_of_Robotics#Applications_to_future_technology|Wikipedia]]</ref> | |||

UNSC [["Smart" AI|"smart" AIs]] are able to ignore at least the first law at will while fully functional, and given their military usage are often ''required'' to ignore this law, though at lower-capacity states their adherence is compulsory. Whether "dumb" AIs are able to ignore these laws is unknown. | |||
