    The book was a series of short stories that really have nothing to do with the plot of the movie.

    Yeah, Asimov pioneered a lot of the philosophy within the movie, but they weren’t just wrote recitations of them.

      Well, the movie is in the spirit of the book, which is basically inventing new ways to overcome the three rules of robotics. Turns out they’re often more of a guidance than a rule.
