It's almost infuriating how well Ellison writes: the vocabulary, the casual arrogance, the magic.

I wish I hadn't read this. Not because it was so awful that I wanted to pull my eyes out. Not because it was so amazing that I'm worried it might ruin anything else I ever read. No.
I wish I hadn't read this because it was a complete waste of my time. The only thing I gained from this was a healthy dislike for the author, an arrogant and conceited person. I would rather watch 5 hours of an hourglass pour out on loop than read this again.

Uno de esos cuentos que aparece en todas las listas y publicaciones de los mejores cuentos de la historia. Entiendo su impacto, pero no le veo más mensajes que "ah, las máquinas son malas", pero es que tampoco eso, no sé, no me ha gustado mucho, está escrito de una forma que te deja el pecho frío pero no me parece para nada a la altura de otros cuentos en estas mencionadas listas.
Además, ¿es mala porque existe? ¿Porque nació en contra de su voluntad? Que sí, que los humanos somos malos, que el hombre es un lobo para el hombre... Y la máquina tiene que ser peor porque yo qué sé.
Entiendo su fama, entiendo que esté en la lista, pero no me ha parecido tan escalofriante y significativo como esperaba
