Who were the first people to write about robots?

The brother of the Czech writer Karel Čapek invented the word and Karel used it for his play Rossum's Universal Robots written in 1920. The word robot comes from the word Slavik word 'robota' meaning serf labor, and, "drudgery" or "hard work". Therefore you can't write about Robots until the word is invented so the answer must be 1920. (Although you can write about 'automatons' which is what they were called prior to being called robots).

Who was the first person to write robotics rules?

Isaac Asimov is remembered for proposing what he called the three laws of robotics, however, he did so as a science fiction writer; he never designed any actual robots. Nonetheless, he is the best candidate as the first person to write robotics rules. At the present time, various forms of robots do exist, but they do not conform to any specific set of robotic rules. Robots are built for specific tasks and are designed to do those tasks without reference to any broader rules.
