Per our friends at Slashdot it appears that the US Army has some robots that have no issues breaking Asimov’s first law, which is “harm no human.”  I am currently reading  The Robots of Dawn

Which like the majority of Asimov’s work is well worth the time. Asimov collected 3 rules that robots must follow that will ensure they do no harm to humans while protecting themselves.

Four rules actually. I assume you’ve finished the book and found that out by now though.
