SOLVED. Science Fiction Short Story about Powerful Computer that stops working. [s]

[Elisabeth]

There's this short story about this computer that is super intelligent and can answer every question ever but one day stops working. A couple of scientists start to try and figure out what whent wrong and discuss the possibilities of why it stopped working. I remember at one point they discuss if the computer would be able or not to know the price/amount of grain produced.
Eventually one of them decides to write a question but this time adds the word "please" before submitting it. This causes the computer to start working again

Elisabeth, around what year did you read this short story?

Is it from a sci-fi anthology/ collection for adults or teens? (What was the common theme of the short stories?)

[SamSpayedPI]

One of the stories in The Cyberiad by Stanisław Lem perhaps? I don't remember that one in particular, but it seems similar to some of the other stories.

[Ayshe]

"Key Item" by Isaac Asimov seems to be it.

That's collected in Buy Jupiter and Other Stories I think.
