A post argues Asimov’s robot laws don’t work as AI ethics and proposes new ones

A quoted post argues that Asimov’s robot laws were always narrative devices rather than workable ethics, and points to a proposed new set of rules as a replacement.
The main point is that classic robot laws don’t translate cleanly into modern AI ethics, so the author is proposing a new framework instead.
