    I'm pretty sure the three laws don't prevent robots from lying so how is a checkbox going to stop them?

    I see your checkbox and raise you a radio button.

    Harrison Ford did more than ask them to click a box.

    I just don't get the checkbox.

    The capchas yeah, most humans can't even figure those out* (except the non-difficult ones which are basically outsourced OCR), but it must be straight forward enough to write a bot that can identify a checkbox and click it.

    *Although robots will probably be better able to figure those out more quickly than humans soon enough

    Your mistake is in assuming the only check performed is the checking of a box.

    What's the additional underlying stuff. I know it can't be as simple as it seems but what else does it look for. The speed at which a person is able to identify and click the box?

    But what if robots have a porn addiction?

    I think you have your Will Smith movies mixed up. It's 'I, Robot' or 'I Am Legend'. I suggest you go back to West Philedelphia for further study.

    The three laws don't apply to real robots.

    Also the word robot means slave so quit your jibber-jabber and get back to work.
