There's nothing essentially wrong with this story of a bratty, abandoned AI that's luring in ships like an anglerfish, or the disaffected and isolated officer who bonds with it. Maybe it's that I'm not terribly fond of AI-gone-rogue stories, and the realisation that this is what the story was came a whole lot earlier than the twist reveal. I did like the cookie mechanism of telepathy, but again that was telegraphed well in advance. 

I enjoyed it, but mildly. It was a little dull in places, sorry to say.
