Bad Robot

The following is a true story that never actually happened. A robot complains about his owner's wife's cooking. The robot in his mono-tone voice says, quite articulately for a machine, "This...is...the...worst...crap...I...have...ever...been...forced....to ...eat. SOS! S-O-S! She is forcing me to eat poison. Poison, I say, poison." She turns to her husband and says, "Did you program him to say that?"
"No dear," the husband said, "He's an AI, you know. That artificial intelligence stuff; which means he basically programs himself. He programmed himself to say that."
Convinced, the wife turns to the robot and says, "Bad Robot".
The husband thinks, "Good robot."
