• When Sonny is drawing the picture of the bridge for Spooner, there is a piece of paper to the left with computer code on it. The code is that of a Renderman shader; a procedural description of a surface used to describe the robots' appearance during rendering.
• For the character of Sonny the accused robot, the effects team used the same process that was used to create Gollum in The Lord of the Rings - The Two Towers, with Alan Tudyk providing the body movements and voice for Sonny.
• Although the late Dr. Isaac Asimov is credited as a writer in the "suggested by the book" category, there never was an Asimov "book" (i.e. novel) called I, Robot. A short story called "I, Robot", about a robot called "Adam Link", was written by Earl and Otto Binder (aka "Eando" Binder) and published in the January 1939 issue of Amazing Stories, well before the unrelated and more well-known book I, Robot (1950), a collection of short stories, by Isaac Asimov. Dr. Asimov admitted to being heavily influenced by the Binder short story. The title of Asimov's collection was changed to "I Robot" by the publisher, against Asimov's wishes.
• Movie Goof (continuity error): In almost every scene with Lanning's cat, her eyes are blue. But When Spooner jumps in the fountain, the cat's eyes are yellow.
