what makes a human different from a robot?
The answer is simple his cpu the gr8 "brain",with stable processor

things in this world ?what makes u feel so?my opinion is that he

electronic robot he has sensors ,cpu ,and a learning programme
which makes him different from the other things in the world .

Three laws of robotics

In science fiction, the Three Laws of Robotics are a set of three rules written by Isaac Asimov, which almost all positronic robots appearing in his fiction must obey. Introduced in his 1942 short story "Runaround", although foreshadowed in a few earlier stories, the Laws state the following:

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. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.

Later, Asimov added the Zeroth Law: "A robot may not harm humanity, or, by inaction, allow humanity to come to harm"; the rest of the laws are modified sequentially to acknowledge this.These laws are becoming essential for the design of intelligent robots.
