It's a nightmarish tale that concerns the last five humans all trapped within the inescapable confines of a supercomputer whose eternal hatred towards humanity continues on through relentless torture and the curse of immortality.

 

Simply a plusgood read for those interested, and supposedly one of the ten most reprinted short-stories in the English language [1] which is rather interesting in that it's the writer's first and final draft.
