50% serious, 50% comical, 50% bad at math. It was written while the author was reading Richard Feynman's Q.E.D. and a few of Terry Pratchett's Discworld novels.

Humane eBook William Allison
I'm definitely a bit of a sci fi geek, and even though programming doesn't tend to be my thing, I've always found the idea of A.I. to be fascinating.Now, usually, "A.I." pretty much entails some robot becoming self-aware, deciding we humans are [insert derogatory adjective here], and attempting to exterminate us (which can be fun storytelling, I guess; it just gets a little old when it's done over and over and over), so stories--like this one--which are more introspective and focus more on the nature of A.I.--can be really fascinating.
The author's writing style definitely adds to the whole thing. "Quirky", I think I'd call it (but in a good way): kind of like Neil Gaiman or Terry Pratchett's work. As the story itself is kind of haunting, adding this extra flair helps add some humor and keep things interesting.
All in all, this piece is definitely worth a look-see!
