I wonder if the three laws of robotics are already weaved into the LLM. Seems like a necessary step for this kind of usage.


I found this video insightful on the matter from Computerphile: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7PKx3kS7f4A

Where they argue that basically having an AI follow these laws is impossible because it would require rigorous definition of terms that are universally ambiguous and solving ethics.


Those rules weren't meant to generate societal harmony. They were made to have a contradiction which in turn could generate a good plot.

Remember what happened in Isaac Asimov's iRobot?


It's also important to note that with modern LLMs, they wouldn't even work. It's too easy to convince the LLM to violate its own rules.
