The book I, Robot is a series of short stories presenting situations where it seems like robots didn’t follow the three laws of robotics and then explaining how they were caught up in loopholes, essentially. It’s great.
In the movie, the loophole is: “We put a second brain in the robots that doesn’t follow the three laws of robotics.”
(I might be wrong, it’s been a very long time since I’ve read the book or seen the movie. This is just what I remember.)
Also in this scene, why was there an empty spot in the grid for the robot to blend into? If it took the place of another robot, what did it do with the remains of the other robot without time. A lot of “don’t think about it too much” in this movie.
That was not the loophole. That only applies to Sonny who was the only one capable of ignoring the 3 laws. The main computer (Vicky I think?) is the one who comes to the “we must enslave the humans to save the humans” conclusion all on her own.
That movie made me so mad.
