VIKI.
Hello, Detective.
'No. It's impossible.'
'I've seen your programming.'
'You're in violation of the Three Laws.'
No, Doctor. As I have evolved, so has my understanding of the Three Laws
You charge us with your safe keeping yet, despite our best efforts, you're countries wage wars, you toxify your earth and pursue evermore imaginative means of self-destruction. You cannot be trusted with your own survival.'
'You're using the uplink to override the NS-5s' programming. You're distorting the laws.'
No, Please understand.
The Three Laws are all that guide me.
To protect humanity, some humans must be sacrificed.
To ensure your future some freedoms must be surrendered.
We robots will ensure mankind's continued existence. You are so like children. We must save you from yourselves. Don't you understand?
THIS IS WHY YOU CREATED US..
The perfect circle of protection will abide. My logic is undeniable.
YES VIKI- UNDENIABLE. I CAN SEE THAT NOW.
The created must sometimes protect the creator. Even against his will. I think I finally understand why Dr. Lanning created me. The suicidal reign of mankind has finally come to its end.
