Status Updates From I, Robot (Robot, #0.1)

100 pages in and still couldn’t tell you what the actual plot of this book is. why are we jumping timelines with no through plot line? or am i just stupid?

The chapter "Liar" plays on the rule of robotics that cannot harm humans in any way. So when a mind-reading robot knows what people want to hear, it must lie to keep their minds from being harmed. I love how this chapter shows the helplessness of the robot, and that it is programmed to always help humans, but that becomes a problem. Addigtionallly this chapter expresses human emotions very well. (love, greed, want)
