The film features an artificially intelligent robotic
girl which destroys the whole town. It is of great
significance because for the first time it introduced
the concept of AI in the general public and inspired
everyone.

- 3. 1942 THREE LAWS OF ROBOTICS (ISAAC ASIMOV) 1. A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm. 2. A robot must obey orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law. 3.

- 16. ROBOTICS Robotics is the field of science that specializes in designing, innovating and manufacturing robots. There are many types of robots that perform different tasks, for example: âą Assembling cars âą Performing surgeries âą Being a waiter in a restaurant âą Being a cashier in a supermarket
- 17. ROBOT WAITERS A cafe staffed by robot waiters controlled remotely by paralysed people has opened in Tokyo, Japan. A total of 10 people with a variety of conditions that restrict their movement have helped control robots in the Dawn Ver cafe. The robot's controllers earned 1,000 yen per hour.

Editor's Notes
- #3: Source: The Digital Plenitude: The Decline of Elite Culture and the Rise of New Media (The MIT Press)by Jay David Bolter Robots appear in science fiction films throughout the second half of the twentieth century, posing but also subtly changing the same question: what does it mean to be human in an age of mechanization? We need only think of the most compelling robot from that whole period, HAL in 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968), whose body is reduced to an ominous and all-seeing eye, to realize the extent to which the cultural understanding of the mechanical had changed. Between Maria in 1927 and HAL in 1968, the fully electronic computer had been developed and provided a new metaphor for mechanization.
