The writer of the laws himself made his career by writing an entire book series with stories about pointing out where the laws break down.

Spend months in a meeting room with everything from ethicists and philosopher to machine learning specialists and developers to figure out each nuance of the rules
or program it to kill everything until the batteries run down and send it out within the hour

The answer in a war is always the second option.

He did also do some stories about 'fixing' the laws but in every case that resulted in either limiting the robots capabilities in a restricting way or requiring them to have more power over people in ways that could be harmful to humanites self autonomy in the longrun.
