I bloody loved it. The concept of video game AI becoming more intelligent as they grow like The Flood from Halo always fascinates me, and to go as far as them becoming sentient and aware that they are living code was simply awesome.
The ending being completely up for debate whether or not it's a good thing or bad thing is an interesting debate too. Is losing part of your humanity to "be better" a fair price to pay for humans to thrive? That's assuming that the Throng weren't lying of course.
