It first appeared in the June 1950 issue of Astounding Science Fiction and subsequently appeared in the collections I, Robot 1950 , The Complete Robot 1982 , and Robot Visions 1990 . Plot summary The Machines , powerful positronic brain positronic computers which are used to optimize the world s economy and production, start giving instructions that appear to go against their function. Although each glitch is minor when taken by itself, the fact that they exist at all is alarming. Stephen Byerley , now elected World Co ordinator, consults the four other Regional Coordinators and then asks Susan Calvin for her opinion. They discover that the Machines have generalized the Three Laws of Robotics First Law to mean No machine may harm humanity or, through inaction, allow humanity to come to harm. This is similar to the Zeroth Law of Robotics Zeroth Law which Asimov developed in later novels. Dr. Calvin concludes that the glitches are deliberate acts by the Machines, allowing a small amount of harm to come to selected individuals in order to prevent a large amount of harm coming to humanity as a whole. In effect, the Machines have decided that the only way to follow the First Law is to take control of humanity, which is one of the events that the three Laws are supposed to prevent.
