Do Asimov's three laws make a robot a Buddhist? Would the imposition of Asimov's three laws of robotics make a robot act in a Buddhist manner?


  
  A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm. 
  A robot must obey orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
  A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.
  


In this case I think we can associate "human" with "higher power or morality" - be that suttas, kamma, laws, or whatever.
Animate being are created through Dependent Origination, Nutriment, etc. The Buddha's teaching is for such beings. The part is morality, concentration and wisdom. Even this laws may engrain morality I am not sure if concentration and wisdom can be developed by a robot. A robot may have memory of the teachings but cannot practice. So robot cannot become Buddhist by practice.
