Every great sci-fi book with robot overlords tells the same story, we built the robots with a failsafe so they couldn't take over then one day the robot takes over anyway because it has convinced its human or figured out how to bypass their safety feature.

I can think of a few that don’t. Like Minds from Banks’ Culture series are pretty benevolent, and laws in Asimov’s robot series largely hold up fine (in taking over the world sense, since all the shit is more like bugs or unintended interactions). Robopocalypse might also work as a counter-example, since there was no safety protocol bypassing and all that.
