Reminds me of this:

"A computer program does what you tell it to do, not what you want it to do."

And:

"I suppose when it gets to that point, we shan't know how it does it."
-- Turing

He was speaking of AI, but the points of these quotes are that we
already program computers so complicatedly that they become
unpredictable (dishonest?), and the more they seem or act intelligent,
the more this will be true.
