Chapter 1503 - 1227: Say the Harshest Words, Take the Cruelest Beating_3Chapter 1503: Chapter 1227: Say the Harshest Words, Take the Cruelest Beating_3
The reason is quite simple, because Fan Chong’s novel uses the all-out war between robots and humans as its background.
It’s written very well.
The terrifying aspect of Chu Kuang lies in:
Didn’t Fan Chong say there will be a future war between robots and humans?
I’ll use nine stories to continuously prove to you with the logically consistent Three Laws that:
Robots can never betray humans!
Do you now understand where Fan Chong lost?
He lost in the understanding of the rules, he lost in the cognition of robots. After reading Chu Kuang’s novel, you’ll understand how powerful the constraints of the Three Laws are on robots. It’s like humans will die if they don’t eat, how can Fan Chong break such fundamentally correct and guiding laws?"
...
Chen Le is not alone.
Recently, after being urged by Chen Le to read numerous science fiction novels, his friend Huyan Dabo also became a fan of Chu Kuang. Previously, the two had watched Chu Kuang’s Wandering Blue Star together, both giving high praise and recommending it to their own fans.
And today.
Huyan Dabo also read "I, Robot."
Huyan Dabo’s reaction was the same as Chen Le’s; he believed the Three Laws of Robotics have completely unified Blue Star’s robot novels!
"Where the Three Laws of Robotics excel, Chen Le explained very thoroughly.
I’ll chat with everyone about why this novel law can shock everyone!
Because the Three Laws of Robotics proposed by Chu Kuang are actually also the main guiding principles of many ethical systems in the world.
Needless to say.
Theoretically, everyone has a self-preservation instinct, which is equivalent to the third law of the robots.
And every ’good person’ with social conscience and responsibility, in theory, obeys appropriate authority;
Listening to his doctor, boss, government, psychiatrist, and colleagues;
And abides by the law, keeps order, and follows rules—
Even if it affects his own comfort or security—
This is equivalent to the robot’s second law.
In addition, theoretically, every ’good person’ loves others as himself, protects his compatriots, and risks his life to save others, this is equivalent to the robot’s first law.
The Three Laws represent humanity.
People have humanity, and robots also have humanity.
Humanity is merely a noun; it represents respect for life, compassion, and love.
As a fan of Chu Kuang, I actually prefer Chu Kuang’s works other than science fiction, after all, everyone knows I’m quite good at writing science fiction, probably similar to Fan Chong.
But this time, I fell in love with Chu Kuang’s science fiction.
The undeniable fact in the entire sci-fi world, as mentioned by Chen Le, is that the Three Laws of Robotics have epoch-making significance for science fiction. If I write about robots in the future, I will definitely adhere to the Three Laws."
...
Chen Le, a frontline sci-fi writer on Wei Continent.
Huyan Dabo, a top sci-fi writer on Wei Continent.
The persuasive power and influence of the former may lack a bit.
But Huyan Dabo and Fan Chong are at the same level as sci-fi writers, even those who dislike Chu Kuang’s sci-fi work must acknowledge his statement. Not to mention, even if not as explicit, Blue Star science fiction writers have already understood what the Three Laws of Robotics truly mean!
At this moment.
The sci-fi circle fell silent.
Instead, readers who previously did not thoroughly grasp the Three Laws of Robotics finally realized what a great achievement Chu Kuang has accomplished!
"It’s clear now!"
"After looking back at the explanation and three laws as well as the nine stories in the novel, one can understand Chu Kuang’s true terrifying aspect!"
"Almost unshakable laws!"
"Programmers say: The Three Laws are like the tcp/ip protocol of computers."
"Robots are born of them, exist because of them, so there’s no saying they will betray humans."
"Oh my."
"Isn’t Fan Chong’s novel completely negated by Chu Kuang, yet Fan Chong can’t find a counterpoint?"
"There’s no way to fight then!"
"The key is that Chu Kuang pointed out flaws in the Three Definitions. He himself didn’t claim the Three Laws are foolproof, for instance, when humans create robots, they can redefine ’harm’. What is harm? Does breaking the skin during protection count? If the computation result is minor injury when saving someone, severe injury when not, should it save or not? Also, with two people in water and it can only save one, wouldn’t this violate the first law if it can’t save both? If it can not save, the loophole doesn’t need mentioning, right? But this still protects humans to the greatest extent, so it gained widespread acceptance."
Indeed.
The Three Laws are not flawless.
But considering real-world laws, one knows.
Humans will obey laws, but there will always be attempts to break rules; the Three Laws are like robot laws and will undoubtedly have loopholes.
Because the rules cannot limit human nature.
Certainly.
This is the current understanding.
In fact, Asimov himself later used the "Zeroth Law" to overturn the Three Laws.
However, at least for now, few people have thought of this.
Though some are discussing and attempting to break the Three Laws, finding loopholes, which aren’t fatal.
After all, things like seeking law loopholes are continually addressed in Chu Kuang’s novels.
...
When a theory gains common acceptance, not even sci-fi writers can deny, considering they don’t represent sci-fi itself.
In fact.
After Chen Le and Huyan Dabo, more and more sci-fi writers began to acknowledge the basic establishment of the Three Laws of Robotics.
