Long before AI became mainstream, Isaac Asimov imagined intelligent machines capable of reasoning, language, and moral judgment, and bound them by the Three Laws of Robotics to prevent human harm. Today’s AI is far less advanced, yet far more influential, operating without any comparable ethical or legal framework as it shapes commerce, politics, and mental health. In this episode of, Defending the Algorithm™”, Christopher Jacobs explores why Asimov’s science fiction may offer a blueprint for the legal accountability modern AI urgently needs.
