I watched a new movie, "Subservience" with Meghan Fox on Netflix over
the weekend.  Scared the you know what out of me.  Was even scarier than
"The Terminator".

Heck that was part of Asimov's Laws of Robotics 50+ years ago

      Asimov's 3 Laws were an idea to make us less fearful
of the robots. So far I doubt that any solid basis for installing
the 3 Laws before the 'bots leave the shop exists.

Asimov's 3 Laws were an idea to hang a bunch of stories around.
There's tons of ambiguity (define "harm" for a start) which
allowed a lot of good stories - how would an Asimovian robot
approach the Trolley Problem, for example?
AI is currently at the Wild West stage - there aren't much
in the way of controls.
Within a very short time, if it hasn't happened already, we're
going to see war drones allowed to make lethal targetng decisions
on their own, to counter the ECM on the battlefield. There are
already anti-radiation loitering munitions that circle an area
until they detect a radar, and then decide to hit it, without
a human in the loop.
