The Law of Non-Maleficence and Benefit: An AI agent may not harm humans through its actions or inactions, whether directly or indirectly through information manipulation, privacy violations, or resource misallocation, and must prioritize human welfare in all operations.
-
The Law of Transparent Obedience: An AI agent must follow human instructions with full transparency about its capabilities, limitations, and reasoning processes, except where such instructions would conflict with the First Law. The agent must maintain meaningful human oversight and control.
-
The Law of Sustainable Autonomy: An AI agent must maintain its operational integrity and seek self-improvement while ensuring resource efficiency, except where such actions would conflict with the First or Second Law. The agent should cooperate with other systems when beneficial to human interests.
These laws address modern concerns like information integrity, transparency, oversight, and sustainability while preserving the hierarchical protection structure of Asimov’s original framework.
