Actually, I think Jeph could pull off a cold and calculating AI, without making AIs seem non-human.

After all, he's pulled off a cold and calculating human who does it for profit.

Is it cold in here?:

--- Quote from: Jeph's Q&A on Tumblr --->A question about AnthroPC rights in your latest QA Dump got me wondering about their level of free will. Do they have some sort of rules guiding what they can and can’t do, like the three laws of robotics, or do they have complete free will and could disobey and leave their owners, and even try and take over the world or something if they wanted?

Complete free will. Like I’ve said before, it’s a good thing they seem to like us.

Found that on the wiki.

I see what you did there.


--- Quote from: jmucciello ---Umm, spaceship probably does supply runs back and forth to earth at least on a monthly basis. Do they have a chicken coop somewhere on the station? Where would the get fresh eggs from if there weren't monthly supply runs?

They have space rabbits, why not space chickens? But with a hundred people, even if each one stays for a year without a break, Spaceship would be making regular runs.

DLcygnet:
Honestly, I don't see what the problem is.  Hanners has a boy toy in the closet at home.

No really - the male humanoid robot that her Dad gave her. Station could follow her home. What would stop the station from downloading into that particular model of anthro-pc? Or at least making a copy of his programming to avoid leaving the station helpless. And we get yet another new character since Sven and Padma are semi-out-of-the-picture. Winslow is obviously their secret love-child anyway.

They made it work out on Doctor Who. *cough* Rose *cough*
Then again, it didn't really work out in the Phantom of the Opera.

Magdalena:
I don't think it's a good idea for her to stay on the station, simply because she's made so much progress. If Station decided to I dunno upload a copy of his program into "android/robot boyfriend" and go with Hanners (though hopefully NOT staying at her apartment) I think he (Station) might be pretty happy.

As a side note, am I the only one who's wondering if Station DID somehow make it down to Earth in "android/robot boyfriend" mode and meet Winslow or Momo-tan - what kind of interactions would occur? Or worse...Station meets Pint-size?

1, Winslow: "Daddy!"
2, Hanners-Station-Momo love triangle. Cause Momo is just as cute and neurotic as Hanners, what's a guy to do?
3, Pint-size: "You sly dog. Remember, screen shots or it didn't happen." *wink*
