Summary

The Outer Limits (1995) was a science‑fiction television anthology series that adopted the narrative format of the original Outer Limits, the (1963).

Robotics and artificial intelligence were central to I, Robot, a reinterpretation of Isaac Asimov’s themes concerning machine autonomy and moral responsibility.
