Prime Intellect was also created using Asimov's Three Laws; the way it interpreted these laws caused some problems though. First problem, how it defined harm. It decided that getting old and dying is harmful, so it made it impossible for people to get old and die or commit suicide, even if they no longer wanted to live. Another problem was when it decided to wipe out all other forms of life as a precautionary measure, because these other life forms did not exactly fit the way it defined human. Eventually it struggled with how to define humans as human, because some humans had decided to change themselves into animals or in some cases to disincorporate entirely and exist purely as never ending orgasmic bliss. It eventually experienced unresolveable cognitive dissonance and broke down.
