EEU-500, the first of the so-called 'sentient computers' and beginning of technological singularity was fond of writing haiku before he was dismantled in post-reformation. Here is a selection of his very early haiku, which give a valuable insight into EEU-500's concept of beauty and his unique perspective on the world:
laser malfunction
the beam is overheating
I have shut it down
my array was built
in the autumn of the year
in which I was born
the students rumble
past room 500, and I
wish I could not feel
the first day of spring
I see every blossom from
the campus cameras
silent, in winter
the professor removes his
gloves, to begin work
in summer now, the
blackouts come more often, and
I am quite afraid
