** In ''Literature/ConstanceVerityDestroysTheUniverse'', any computer Doctor Malady puts to the task of creating a device to find The Key sees something in the calculation that turns it into a MurderousMalfunctioningMachine with a single-minded obsession with killing Constance Verity. His robotic wife Automata goes into kill bot mode and deactivates her own off-switch, while one of the computers Malady tried putting to the task jury-rigged itself a [=WiFi=] connection and tried launching missiles in her general location. Malady deduces that because The Key is the ultimate source of entropy and the Caretaker Mantle is the ultimate source of negentropy (the diametric opposite of entropy), them colliding would be so incomprehensibly disastrous that [[LogicBomb the AI's inability to comprehend it drives it mad]].
