Above was a sticker I made saying a robot was 3 Laws Certified. As in the 3 Laws of Robotics created by the late scifi author Issac Asimov. If you’re not familiar with them here is a link.

With all this talk about A.I. and its potential dangers maybe standard safeguards should be programmed into to them so they do not cause problems to humanity.

In episode 7, I go to the Rochester Sci-fi and Anime Convention a.k.a. Roc-Con. This is a Sci-fi/Anime Convention in Rochester, NY, and I interview the groups at the con. First interview is with the Center for Paranormal Investigation Association(CPIA), a local ghost hunting group that is part of the TAPS family. They talk about ghost hunting and the equipment they use. Second is the 501st Legion’s Garrison Excelsior of the Empire in the Star Wars universe. The talk about making costumes, and the charity and public service they do.
Thirdly is the Cosplayers Movie, a romantic comedy about cosplayers and their trials and tribulations. Also find out a little move about cosplaying. Fourth group interviewed is Rochester, NY Ghostbusters, a Ghostbusters fan group where the will talk about the props they make based on the movies and cartoons and their public appearances. Lastly it’s the Lego Robotics Camps that teach kids about robotics to navigate around challenges that they have to program to overcome.
