A review by catscodeandcake
I, Robot by Isaac Asimov
5.0
Well worth a reread
I first read this book around the age of 11 or 12. At the time, while acknowledging the future it promised was unlikely to elapse in the timeframes of the book, it fascinated me that the possibilities were there.
It's hard to argue that an AGI would not consider itself superior to humans, and the creation of the three laws of robotics and the implications, the warnings, implicit in this book for mankind make it something anyone embarking on a career in ML/AI should read as a required text.
