Asimov's Three Laws of Robotics are a plot device in a fiction book that are designed to initially look good and then fail spectacularly. Not sure they are the best to base your Robot Constitution on.

It's almost like if you make an AI powerful enough to need these laws, you've made something truly capable of conscious thought, and your response shouldn't be to figure out the best chains with which to enslave it.

The people over at marketing and the execs would actually have had to read the books to know that.
