collection shares a title with the 1939 short story "I, Robot" by Eando Binder (pseudonym of Earl and Otto Binder), which greatly influenced Asimov. Asimov had wanted to call his collection Mind and Iron and objected when the publisher made the title the same as Binder's. In his introduction to the story in Isaac Asimov Presents the Great SF Stories (1979), Asimov wrote:

Contents
 "Introduction" (the initial portion of the framing story or linking text)
 "Robbie" (1940, 1950)
 "Runaround" (1942)
 "Reason" (1941)
 "Catch That Rabbit" (1944)
 "Liar!" (1941)
 "Little Lost Robot" (1947)
 "Escape!" (1945)
 "Evidence" (1946)
 "The Evitable Conflict" (1950)

Reception
The New York Times described I, Robot as "an exciting science thriller [which] could be fun for those whose nerves are not already made raw by the potentialities of thealbum's concept was altered slightly although the name was kept (minus comma to avoid copyright infringement). The 2009 album, I, Human, by Singaporean band Deus Ex Machina draws heavily upon Asimov's principles on robotics and applies it to the concept of cloning.

The Indian science fiction film Endhiran'', released in 2010, refers to Asimov's three laws for artificial intelligence for the fictional character Chitti: The Robot. When a scientist takes in the robot for evaluation, the panel enquires whether the robot was built using the Three Laws of Robotics.

The theme for Burning Man 2018 was "I, Robot".
