I, Robot: The 3 Laws of Robotics

The one who invented the 3 Laws of Robotics was Isaac Asimov. He was born in Russia, Petrovichi, on January 2nd, 1920, and died on April 6th, 1992 in New York, USA. He was an American author and taught biochemistry at the University of Boston. He is best known for his popular science fiction works and science books. He has written over 9000 letters and postcards and edited nearly 500 books; he is considered one of the most prolific writers of all time. He was the writer of the series called I, Robot, which nowadays is very popular.

3 Laws of Robotics:
  1. A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.

  2. A robot must obey orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.

  3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.
In the movie, I, Robot, the robots must follow the three laws, but the program V.I.K.I, starts creating robots that can decide whether or not to follow the laws. These robots it creates, are a threat to humans since they don't treat them right and make them stay at their houses so that they can't interfere with V.I.K.I.'s plan to control everything. Also the protagonist, Dt. Spooner, hates robots because he had an accident and an older version of the robots saved him instead of a girl, who was also in danger, and she died.

I think you can do a better job explaining each law separately into the movie.
