Asimov describes the three laws of robotics.
First Law: A robot may not injure a human being, or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
Second Law: A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
Third Law: A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.
& by playing with the rules you get one of the most clever sci-fi books.
I remember one of the stories that could have been a Sherlock Holmes novel
