A short documentary called “Pick of the Litter” focuses on the training of service dogs for the vision impaired, and it first introduced me to this concept of Intelligent Disobedience.

No longer on Netflix, but you can find it on Amazon Prime here: https://amzn.to/3gttRxt

If you are a dog lover, this movie will tug at your heart strings. If you are not into dogs, it’s still a wonderful character study in perseverance & human-animal symbiosis.

For programmers, you’ll start to realize that even reaching dog-like AI would be quite an accomplishment and open up a lot of possibilities for humanity.

On a lighter note, whenever I hear the term Intelligent Disobedience now, I always also think of one of my favorite organizational psychology terms, Malicious Compliance.
