Tilden's Laws of Robotics

(Redirected from Tilden's Law of Robotics)
Mark W. Tilden is a robotics physicist who was a pioneer in developing simple robotics.[1] His three guiding principles/rules for robots are:[1][2][3]
- A robot must protect its existence at all costs.
- A robot must obtain and maintain access to its own power source.
- A robot must continually search for better power sources.
In Wired magazine, Tilden paraphrased this as
- Protect thine ass.
- Feed thine ass.
- Look for better real estate.
What is notable in these three rules is that these are basically rules for "wild" life, so in essence what Tilden stated is that what he wanted was "proctoring a silicon species into sentience, but with full control over the specs. Not plant. Not animal. Something else."[4]
