Method of Madness:
We don't really know that they can't, we know they can be moved from one chassis to another.

Gyrre:
So, what if Detective Basilisk was friends with one of Bubbles' troop and knew Bubbles before she served? And what if Bubbles'memory of Roko was removed and stored along with the rest of said memories?

That might account for Roko's recklessness.

I'm... not sure what you mean by the second part of the sentence. Surely they "can" be deleted. Why aren't they deleted? I'd assume it's the same reason "less satisfactory" humans are typically not killed.

QC treats AIs as basically sapient beings. Deleting them is the same as killing a person. Unless you meant something I didn't understand, and your post flew way over my head...

Perfectly Reasonable:
Yes, deleting an AI is like killing a  person. Not stated, but we have seen that strenuous efforts are made to find a niche for the likes of Gordon and Pintsize.

And if AIs could be copied, Winslow would have a million brothers.

If I lived in the QC-verse, Gordon could crash at my place.
