Cat Pictures Please

(Hugo Award Best Short Story 2016)

 Una AI que se no se interesa en la dominación mundial, quiere en cambio en interferir en ayuda de las personas por su bien, y a cambio solamente desea fotos de gatos...

My rating: 2 of 5 stars

Could've been done better.

Try for funny and turn out ironic.

I'm not impressed.

Running algorithms for a search engine doesn’t require consciousness. You don’t even need a consciousness to work out what they meant to ask for. You need a consciousness to give them what they actually need. Figuring that out—that’s complicated. That’s interesting.

An AI trying for 'good' and showing people the better options. Well, pal, don't you ever hear about free will?

I really, really don't get why this ... entity talk about Frankestein's monster and comandments , when obviously it wants to be a god.

It is an attempt to sweet the deal and conceal that idea the choise of people who post cats pictures - whom became the target? Because they are used to be humble in front of their cats think is wise to concede or something like that? Or that people with pets know about other more that itself? I haven't the faintest.
