First published in Astounding Science Fiction (April 1941 issue), by Isaac Asimov, this Science Fiction Short Story describes what happens when a robot becomes a Creationist.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })Powell and Donovan are working in Solar Station #5, a relay system designed to beam solar energy directly to Earth. While there, they assembled a new prototype robot, the first model QT. However, they quickly learn there's a new quirk in the positronic brain. Cutie is convinced that humans aren't sophisticated enough to have created robots, so it attempts to reason things out and arrive at the truth. Powell and Donovan don't really care what it believes, but if those beliefs affect its ability to manage the energy beamed to Earth, it might kill humans. As the deadline to the next transmission looms, the pair of field testers find themselves imprisoned against their will."Reason" has been reprinted over a dozen times; I, Robot (1951), Die Besten Science Fiction Geschichten (1962), A Century Of Science Fiction (1962), Space Odysseys (1974), Decade The1940s (1975), Sirius (issue #5, November 1976), Science Fiction Of The Forties (1978), The Road To Science Fiction #3: From Heinlein to Here (1979), The Complete Robot (1982), Science Fiction A Historical Anthology (1983), Isaac Asimov Presents The Best Science Fiction Firsts (1984), Robot Visions (1990), and The Wesleyan Anthology Of Science Fiction (2010).Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); })"Reason" provides examples of: | |
