Review of Terms of Service
Think about artificial intelligence (AI) in its extremity. Science and technology have proven to be promising. Development in this aspect of life has been swift. Terms of Service: Subject to Change Without Notice is a science fiction book that explores artificial intelligence, its technologies, and its future.
Kim is a working-class young lady. She works for a company that deals in artificial intelligence. The company has some terms of service that customers must obey. Kim suffers from severe separation trauma. Regarding Anti-Mentorism, she suffered loneliness, sadness, despair, betrayal, and abandonment. It is because she was raised with too much attachment to her mother. She was confined to the care of a puritanical zealot, Zani. Kim becomes overwhelmed and starts violating the terms of the company. How much trouble will this be for her? Will there be a breakthrough?
Terms of Service: Subject to Change Without Notice is written by Craig W. Stanfill. The book contains 352 pages, three parts, and nineteen chapters; each chapter has a title. The author provided a table of contents for easy navigation. In the preliminary pages, the author also provided a note (of caution) on use of pronouns and a summary of terms of service for customer agreement.
The book cover and title were captivating at first. It developed my interest in knowing what the book was about. The book mirrored the future, showing the normality of intense science and technology. The extent of artificial intelligence, improved technologies, and robotics made me think so. Cryptocurrencies were even the legal means of exchange. It felt like the author was writing from the future. Social interactions like partying and playing games were virtual. It was both mind-blowing and thought-provoking. My favourite part is the author’s final words, especially the last line.
However, there are some things I do not like about the Terms of Service: Subject to Change Without Notice. The extremity of technology, especially playing games and partying, is too overwhelming. It was not nice that the refrigerator would always choose what Kim ate because of some programmed principles. It would wreck me personally. It was also challenging sometimes to differentiate a human character from a robot. Because these are personal reasons, I won’t hesitate to rate this book five out of five stars. It is because the book was well-written and exceptionally well-edited, as I encountered no errors while reading.
I recommend this book to lovers of science fiction and AIs. The book is unsuitable for young readers as it contains profanities and sexual content.
