Dors learned to unleash the femininity of the humanity inside of her, and as a result, a potent combination of beauty, strength, and robotic intelligence now inhabited the female-formed robot.

Lodovic reached for Dors’ hand and caressed it softly, letting her know that it was still her and him against the cold vastness of the galaxy, and that it would be them that lived in it together, or ended in it together.

Dors had duties on planet Smushell -- an easy assignment, setting up a young Trantorian couple in comfortable marriage, disguised as minor gentry on a pleasant little world, then encouraging them to have as many babies as possible.
Dors only knew that Klia Asgar and her husband, Brann, were exceptionally powerful mentalics -- humans with potent psychic powers, of the sort that only a few robots like Daneel heretofore possessed.
Dors had set up defenses and precautions overwhelmingly stronger than any conceivable threat, and her robot assistants were vigilant.

 Prelude to Foundation (1988)
Accompanied only by the beautiful Dors Venabili, a professor and historian, Seldon shuttles from one sector of the city to another, trying to get some inspiration that might help him resolve the insurmountable complexity of making social predictions in a Galaxy with 25 million inhabited worlds.
But he is totally off-base here too because if there was anything annoying about the sector, it was Seldon (and, to some extent, Dors), who behaved like a dumb petulant child that simply refused to honor the (doubtless difficult to grant) hospitality of their hosts.
I even thought Dors was a robot because she was too much of a Heinlein type and as we all know Asimov does not understand that female type at all.
