Faye has embraced her inner junk-yard dog.
Pilchard123:
It only occurred to me today that if Bubbles is/was supposed to smell weapons, maybe that's why the rest of her squad is dead. What if she didn't/couldn't warn them in time? Is this particular arc going to be more about why Bubbles is how she is?
hedgie:
That's a sad thought. It makes sense, but I do hope that it's not the case.

I can tell that we have very little care about general computing components, both ours and of other people, at least from my experience (both myself and close friends). Emily might not have dissociated those from the AIs.
I don't know how I'd handle myself when meeting an AI honestly, although I guess that physical assault would be completely out of the question.

That's interesting :) My experience is quite contrary - I've very seldom seen CS students handle equipment carelessly, nor have I done so myself. Yeah, we do know how much it can take, but usually we're quite careful. (Stuff's expensive...)
AIs, on the other hand, are software - easily changed, discarded, remade... I don't know how I'd handle sentient AI, but in QC-Verse their sentience has been accepted and they have even been granted rights. So, probably with curiosity, but then, that's how I treat most beings.
Is it cold in here?:
--- Quote from: Daniel Patrick Moynihan on 04 Feb 2016, 10:39 ---I think this board may have covered this already, but do we know how most people (who don't have several AI friends) think of AIs and their chassis? Would people think Bubbles is scary because she is a killing machine, insecure/strange because she's wearing a killing machine in a civilian context (like people who proudly/defiantly open carry rifles everywhere it's not prohibited), or something else entirely? Does her Geth Prime-like body even read as combat, or heavy lifting?

I think that's a wide-open field for discussion.
If she were a carbon-based human of that size and build, that alone would leave many people intimidated around her.
We haven't seen any other military bodies except Deathbot, so it's likely that the sight of them is unusual and unexpected.
