THIS MAY NOT BE SO BAD IF IT'S DONE RIGHT

The Financial Times reports that white collar jobs are in jeopardy of being taken over by robots and use this example:
If Daniel Nadler is right, a generation of college graduates with well-paid positions as junior researchers and analysts in the banking industry should be worried about their jobs. Very worried.
Let's replace ALL the banksters with robots that follow Asimov's 3 Laws:
1 - A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
2 - A robot must obey the orders given to it by human beings, except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
3 - A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.
