Isaac Asimov

 Isaac is a significant figure in the world of robotics because he has developed the stereotype of what robots should be used for. What he wrote about became the standard idea of robotics, this was that robot are used to help humans and be be almost their servants. His three rules of robotics are:

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 the orders given to it by a human being 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.
