--- Quote from: ToodleLew on 08 Nov 2017, 10:11 ---I've noticed that, for all the humans in the strip, Jeph "voices" them with roundish voice-bubbles. OTOH, for the "robot" voices, he draws squared-off voice-bubbles.
So far, Jeph has drawn Tilly's voice-bubbles "round", like the human characters. So, for my money, I'll vote "human" for Tilly.

As noted earlier, Momo is the only regular exception. She often uses a human fidelity voice (rounded speech bubble) when conversing with humans and an electronic voice [angular speech boxes] when speaking with other bots. I may have missed other incidents, but, again, Momo is the only one I recall doing this with any regularity.

Tilly is nicely pearshaped, exactly like my lovely wife. No man alive looks like that.
retrosteve:
By the way, Beatrice is a Chatham. John is either an Ellicott or perhaps still an Ellicott-Chatham. Hanners and John are the ONLY Ellicott-Chathams, and I'm not even sure about John.
So what is Beatrice talking about with ALL Ellicott-Chathams have a personal assistant? How many sample points does she have?
Perfectly Reasonable:
Cruelty to robo-horsies? I don't think Gary would like that.

Tilly is dangerous.
She is aware of her instructions and their implications.
If she can 'creatively interpret' them, she is Extremely Dangerous.
I'm looking for this to backfire on Beatrice, who seems unaware of the possibility.
Is it cold in here?:
So far Tilly seems pretty literal.
Beatrice is just the sort to mess with the mind of a human subordinate. She physically mistreated the horse. Extrapolate, then -- would she violate the psychological integrity of an AI?
Which would be interesting because it would put her on a collision course with Eminence Grise. I do not think she would win.
