A Logic Named Joe
"A Logic Named Joe" is a science fiction short story by Murray Leinster that was first published in the March 1946 issue of ''Astounding Science Fiction''. The story actually appeared under Leinster's real name, Will F. Jenkins, since that issue of ''Astounding'' also included a story under the Leinster pseudonym called "Adapter". The story is particularly noteworthy as a prediction of massively networked personal computers and their drawbacks, written at a time when computing was in its infancy.
== Plot ==
The story's narrator is a "logic" (much like a computer) repairman nicknamed Ducky. In the story, a logic whom he names Joe develops some degree of sapience and ambition. Joe proceeds to switch around a few relays in "the tank" (one of a distributed set of central information repositories), and cross-correlate all information ever assembled – yielding highly unexpected results. It then proceeds to freely disseminate all of those results to everyone on demand (and simultaneously disabling all of the content-filtering protocols). Logics begin offering up unexpected assistance to everyone which includes designing custom chemicals that alleviate inebriation, giving sex advice to small children, and plotting the perfect murder... Eventually Ducky "saves the civilization" by locating and turning off the only logic capable of doing this.
