Network Effect (2020) Martha Wells (The Murderbot Diaries #5)
Thiago: “You trust it that much?”
Mensah: “With my life, literally. I know what it will do to protect her, and you, and the rest of the team. Of course, it has its faults. In fact, it’s probably listening to us right now. Are you listening, SecUnit?”
Me, on the feed: What? No.
(Impulse control; I should try to write a code patch for that.)
I told it, Don’t hurt my humans. …
… Arada added, “Who are you?”
ART said, You are aboard the Perihelion, registered teaching and research vessel of the Pansystem University of Mihira and New Tideland. Then it added, I’m not going to hurt your humans, you little idiot.
Arada lifted her brows, startled, and Thiago looked boggled.
I said, You’re using the public feed, everyone can hear you.
So are you, ART said. And you’re leaking on my deck.
