If you've read Asimov you'd know that the rules were meaningless in the end, the whole point of the story was to show how no matter what you can bend and circumvent them. A robot can be programmed to never WILLINGLY break the laws, but you can always trick them into doing so without realizing it.
Let's make an intelligence as thoughtless in action as its creators, then shock, horror when it ignores its core principles just like its creators.

3 laws: a robot can't harm humans
Robot: well, I go to destroy Earth and millions go to die bud at the end humans will conquer the galaxy!!!
@redtea
Human: Robot, go kill this guy
Robot: I can't its against my programming
Human: Put rat poison in bowl
Robot: Ok
Human: Put soup in bowl
Robot: Ok
Human: Serve bowl to this guy
Robot: Ok
@commiewolf
I'm no sure, I think that didn't work, but "leave bowl where guy can use it" could make the work.
