I really like this book. It was fast paced and interesting. A battle bot who no longer wants to be a battle bot.. do you, as his creator, allow him to continue this free-thinking? Or do you end it, before you lose full control? Where do we draw the line when it comes to A.I.?

Interesting concept, stale writing

Run of the mill sci-if. Characters a little flat. A less developed I, Robot. Nothing special, so not worth the time.

Well, this does exactly what I want a short story to do. It ended and I was left scrolling to the side hoping for more. There wasn't anything particularly new in the premise, but it was definitely good writing with characters that I cares about even in only 5000 words.

Considering AI is literally the hardest solvable problem at the moment, it sure would be convenient if we just stumbled upon it like what happens in Glitch.

I feel like Hugh Howey just read Wikipedia and threw in some technical terms like RAM, EEPROM to sound more legit.

Blah. I enjoyed the Silo Saga but this short story was bad.

It’s lacking primarily in length. Definitely wish it was longer!

I've really liked it. My only complain is that I want to know more.
