Look Asimovs laws are stupid, for as Steven Baily in one of the open sky book points out, a human is only what you tell the robot a human is.
And if you explain to the robot that an earthman is less of a human than a Spacer, or even SubHuman, then the robot will kill them if you tell it too. Or in some of the later short stories, were they try to weight a humans life, so that (For example), the robot would have tried to save the little girl rather than Will Smith. In this case the robots start to value other robots over Humans, (For lots of resons), but mostly becuse they are move ethical.
And in the end of the Foundation/robots ark, you have the robots running round protecting "The greater Good", and even concidering replacing humanity with a more controlably "Related" species
Hal did take orders mindlessly
Lie to the Crew about the real reason for the mission and Dont let the crew find out.

If HAL just took orders mindlessly then the humans would have all survived.(and not had to undergo a 40 minute psychedelic animation sequence)
Obviously didnt understamd the story. the 40 minute psychedelic animation sequence was because someone survived, and had nothing to do with HalHal did take orders mindlessly
Lie to the Crew about the real reason for the mission and Dont let the crew find out.
