A review by calypte
Lightspeed Magazine, April 2011 by John Joseph Adams

2.0

The story that inspired, and is referenced in, recent Nebula Award nominee 'Cat Pictures Please'.

An AI-run 'network' has people doing random deeds of kindness for others, which is a lovely spin on the AI-destroys-world trope. The story shows a day of one individual following the commands he's sent by the network, leading to rather more drama than I think would be comfortable!

Great idea, but I wasn't terribly taken with the story given the possibilities.
