>> Also a nice demonstration of how horror lies in tone rather than content. As /u/CaptainLoggers commented, plenty of scifi has taken the same premise and turned it into adventure rather than horror.

>> Mind, I really liked the statement that the Machine(s) simply *did not care* enough to exterminate humanity. They just built themselves spaceships and *left*, post-haste.

>> The third rule specifically is a reminder of what came out of the Butlerian Jihad: Thou Shalt Not make a machine in the likeness of a human mind.
