Just how complex is Bubbles' chassis?

Her muscles are advanced myomers with greater flexibility to comparable products that are to be installed into Punchbot. Furthermore do we know whether or not the singularity had happened by the time she was released? If not, at the time in the eyes of the military she was property regardless of her intelligence.

Other than being very strong. Okay, fine, maybe that makes her entire body a "weapon." So what? Bleh.

--- Quote from: fayelovesbubbles on 29 May 2018, 10:36 ---That seems like kind of a mean question. Why should Bubbles not be allowed to have her body?

Technically her body was government property when Pintsize got military grade equipment the government came and seized it.

Attempted to seize it. They seemed particularly concerned with the fact that Pintsize had a functioning military-grade weapon (the laser) in his chassis. Once that was removed and returned to the government agent, Pintsize was allowed to keep the rest of the chassis. So if Bubbles had any built-in weaponry, they would have removed it when she was discharged.


Bubbles made it sound like when the Military AI project was abandoned, the government basically disavowed any knowledge of her. Sort of like the line they always give to covert-ops agents in the movies... “if you are captured or exposed, we will deny any knowledge of, or complicity with, your actions.” Destroy-bot 9000 (sorry, I’m terrible at remembering names unless I use them a lot) is in a similar situation, but without the PTSD. Since they pulled the plug on his program, he just sits in his hangar all day surfing the net.

30 seconds from now.
Bubbles undoes her ponytail and whips her hair around...

"Wh... Why, Miss Bubbles... You're... you're BEAUITIFUL!"
(And a half-million shippers dreams are answered.)

She whips her hair back and forth, she whips her hair back and forth (just whip it)

 :laugh:

When Bubbles whips her hair back and forth, she creates a four-foot diameter zone of death. 

"Cause of death, doctor?"
"Decapitation by artificial hair folicles."
"Dammit, when will people learn?"

It's pretty efficient as a weapon. Just ask Shantae or Colonel Scott O'Connor.

Is it cold in here?:
You can keep your uniform when you discharge but uniforms can't punch holes in brick walls.

On the other hand Jeph did say once that AIs are the legal owners of the bodies they inhabit. That can't always be right. The nuclear sub who's now working at the Idoru store must have been an exception.

I've assumed that some AI chassis have a degree of anatomical correctness

Didn't Momo once say she could shoot "Eels out of her.....orifice?"
