One problem of a rule based system is that it WILL follow the commands of its creator.
Where and AI and robots are created for warfare, the creators will violate the first law
of Robotics by programming these systems to kill people, as is already happening today
in Iraq and Afghanistan where these robots are fielded. Should government military
organizations be included or excluded from these rules that Alexi is devising?
