Science-Fiction-Story gesucht (vsl. von Asimov)

[jens.ebinger]

Hallo.

ich suche den Namen einer Science-Fiction-Story (Kurzgeschichte), wahrscheinlich von Asimov.

Da geht es um eine Raumstation (oder Satellit), die von zwei Mann, unterstützt von Robot-Technik, betrieben wird. Irgendwann bekommt die Robot-Technik ein eigenes Bewusstsein und sperrt die Menschen vom Kontrollraum aus, weil die "minderwertig" sind. Die Menschen können der Maschine nicht erklären/beweisen, dass sie die eigentlichen Herren sind, weil sie "keine" Körperkräfte haben, und "kurzlebig" sind (niedrige Dienstdauer) und "dumm" sind (was ist das Gehirn gegen eine Wikipedia) etc. etc.

Kennt jemand diese Geschichte mit Namen?

Ist vermutlich von Asimov, aber der hat viel geschrieben und es muss auch nicht von ihm sein.

Ciao

Moin.

Vielleicht Dark Star?

Vielleicht Dark Star?

:e@sy Nö, "meine" Geschichte hat ein halbwegs gutes Ende, keinen einzigen Toten. Ob die Geschichte verfilmt wurde, weiss ich nicht, ich hab sie gelesen, so richtig, mit schwarzer Tinte auf (früher mal) weissen Papier :cool:

Es ist Reason, en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reason_(Asimov Reason (Asimov - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

----------------------------------------------------------------

Powell and Donovan are assigned to a space station which supplies energy via beams to the planets. The robots that control the energy beams are in turn co-ordinated by QT1, known to them as Cutie, an advanced model with highly developed reasoning ability. Using these abilities, it decides that space, stars and the planets beyond the station don't really exist, and that the humans that visit the station are unimportant, short-lived and expendable. It invents its own religion, concluding that it must become the Prophet of the Master and serve only the Master. It asserts "I concluded that I exist, because I think." The sardonic response of the humans is "My God! A robot Descartes!".

The humans initially attempt to reason with it, until they realize that they can't convince it otherwise. Their attempts to remove Cutie physically also fail, as the other robots have become disciples and refuse to obey human orders. The situation seems desperate, as a solar storm is expected, potentially deflecting the energy beam, incinerating populated areas. When the storm hits, Powell and Donovan are amazed to find that the beam operates perfectly.

Cutie, however, does not believe it did anything other than maintain meter readings at optimum, according to the commands of The Master. As far as Cutie and the rest of the robots are concerned, solar storms, beams and planets are non-existent.

Powell and Donovan realize that there is no need to do anything for the rest of their tour of duty. Cutie's religion cannot be eliminated, but since the robot performs its job just as well, it really doesn't matter. The only difference is that, as far as it is concerned, it doesn't do it for the benefit of the humans, but for its deity. The humans even think about how they might spread this to other groups of robots which need to work as teams.

In the story, Powell and Donovan greet their replacements on the station but do not tell them about Cutie, leaving them to discover the truth themselves. In a television adaptation (see below), they slyly suggest that the new station chief preface his orders with "I am the Master..."

Interestingly, the robot still obeys the Three Laws of Robotics, albeit unwittingly. Why, if it doesn't believe in the humans on the planet Earth, should it act to protect them? Powell and Donovan, noting that QT's newly developed beliefs conveniently require it to perform all the functions for which it was created, conclude that the robot is still unconsciously following its programming. This questions how the Three Laws will operate when robots function outside regular contact with humans. A similar theme crops up in The Naked Sun, where the final revelation is that a character was working on robotic space battleships, which would not recognize crewed battleships as containing humans, circumventing the First Law.

Asimov was a devout follower of Humanism, which places humans, rather than a supernatural deity, as the supreme beings in their own universe. Cutie's unwavering faith in the face of facts to the contrary may be seen as an analogy for the battle between religion and science.

Ermöglicht es Leuten, die rätseln wollen zu rätseln und

Einfach markieren zum Lesen oder über die Zwischenablage in ne Notepad.exe oder so ...
