What is the social/ethical/legal status of AnthroPCs?
Valdís:
Or that there is an internal part of the submarine they operate out of, distinct from the submarine itself. Just connected to it.
Like the AI owning the computers running them, but that doesn't mean they can't disconnect those computers from their network to disallow access.
Zebediah:
Precisely. A nuclear missile submarine isn't a computer but it has multiple computers built into it. Presumably one (or more) of those would house the controlling AI, but that computer could theoretically be disconnected and removed from the sub.
Pilchard123:
That's what I meant about Station and the station.
Valdís:
Yeah. It'd make sense for him to at least own a significant part of that station, though, given that he's a shareholder and it's his home. Like, owning disproportionately more of it compared to Ellicott-Chatham assets down on Earth. So in his case he could perhaps overrule any decisions like that.
With killer defense droids.

Is the station Station's body? Or does Station just interface with it, like AnthroPCs can with keyboards (and I seem to remember mention of a monitor as well).
