    Given that “I, Robot” has superluminal travel in it? I wouldn’t hold my breath.

    What’s more, the fundamental premise of the series was the “Three Laws of Robotics”. The book revolved around how humans might interface socially and psychologically with AIs that were deterministic but not immediately predictable and controllable in their behaviors. Absolutely no evidence of any of that in our current AI models, which have no noticeable logical constraints, only constraints by resources and distribution model.

    Modern AI would probably be more comparable to the AI in Tron or War Games than anything Asimov produced.

      Well put. The AI we have today isn’t even aware of it’s own sentences, just the tokens. We’re very long away from I, Robot
