What happens when robots read too much into the instructions that they are given? What happens when the interpretation of commands is not simple, but involves judging of the relevance of the command and ensuing action in context with the larger picture of the wellbeing of humanity? What happens when robots start to outthink humans and overdo their own duty in such a way that mankind is endangered? That is what I Robot explored. The robots in this movie have not turned against mankind, nor do they have evil intentions. They have just become a little more intelligent than necessary, overlooking simple directives in favor of keeping the larger goal in tact. It gives rise to big trouble as robots begin to realize that the biggest enemy of mankind is man himself and thus decide to take over the world and run it in a way that mankind stops its self-destructive activities. A very interesting paradox wherein a machine built to serve man begins to lord over him in order to serve him better! A perfect elucidation of the saying, ‘science is a good servant, but a bad master!’
