That

we

have

agreed

upon

.

Now

you

say

that

it

can

not

be

disobeyed

.

Then

what

is

wrong

?

"

"

You

have

answered

yourself

.

Nothing

is

wrong

!

Think

about

the

Machines

for

a

while

,

Stephen

.

They

are

robots

,

and

they

follow

the

First

Law

.

But

the

Machines

work

not

for

any

single

human

being

,

but

for

all

humanity

,

so

that

the

First

Law

becomes

:

'N

o

Machine

may

harm

humanity

;

or

,

through

inaction

,

allow

humanity

to

come

to

harm

.

'

"

Very

well

,

then

,

Stephen

,

what

harms

humanity

?

Economic

dislocations

most

of

all

,

from

whatever

cause

.

Would

n't

you

say

so

?

"

I

would

.

"

"

And

what

is

most

likely

in

the

future

to

cause

economic

dislocations

?

Answer

that

,

Stephen

.

"

"

I

should

say

,

"

replied

Byerley

,

unwillingly

,

"

the

destruction

of

the

Machines

.

"

"

And

so

should

I

say

,

and

so

should

the

Machines

say

.

Their

first

care

,

therefore

,

is

to

preserve

themselves

,

for

us

.

And

so

they

are

quietly

taking

care

of

the

only

elements

left

that

threaten

them

.

It

is

not

the

'S

ociety

for

Humanity

'

which

is

shaking

the

boat

so

that

the

Machines

may

be

destroyed

.

You

have

been

looking

at

the

reverse

of

the

picture

.

Say

rather

that

the

Machine

is

shaking

the

boat

very

slightly

--

just

enough

to

shake

loose

those

few

which

cling

to

the

side

for

purposes

the

Machines

consider

harmful

to

Humanity

.

So

Vrasayana

loses

his

factory

and

gets

another

job

where

he

can

do

no

harm

--

he

is

not

badly

hurt

,

he

is

not

rendered

incapable

of

earning

a

living

,

for

the

Machine

can

not

harm

a

human

being

more

than

minimally

,

and

that

only

to

save

a

greater

number

.

Consolidated

Cinnabar

loses

control

at

Almaden

.

Villafranca

is

no

longer

a

civil

engineer

in

charge

of

an

important

project

.

And

the

directors

of

World

Steel

are

losing

their

grip

on

the

industry

-

or

will

.

"

"

But

you

do

n't

really

know

all

this

,

"

insisted

Byerley

,

distractedly

.

"

How

can

we

possibly

take

a

chance

on

your

being

right

?
