Not all are programmed to know Asimov's Laws of Robotics, many are not even programmed to recognise humans. It will come, if AI doesn't finish us off first.

The Singularity draws near

An upgradable intelligent agent will eventually enter a "runaway reaction" of self-improvement cycles, each new and more intelligent generation appearing more and more rapidly, causing an "explosion" in intelligence and ... approaching some essential singularity in the history of the race beyond which human affairs, as we know them, could not continue.
