Nathalie Nevejans, How to protect Human Being against Robots?
Judeo-Christian culture encourages mankind to be wary of its creature, therefore the question of how to protect man from robots must be raised. This protection is made first of all by the legal rules that may apply in robotics. Today, we have a number of legal tools that already enables us to protect the human being from the hazards to his health or safety that a robot could cause. However, the improvements in robotics will have considerable influence on humans and society. Thus scrutinizing the protection of man against robot can not eliminate the question of the ethical risks that the machine could present, for which the legislator could be much less prepared.
