The difference is that Ms. Chatham assumes no responsibility for her actions. She uses people - even her own daughter - to meet her own ends, and has shown no hint of remorse, or any indication that she will ever change.


Sven has admitted that his actions have been terrible, and he is making an effort to become a better person. And Dora also admitted that the issues between them were as much a problem with herself as they were with him.


Don't get me wrong... Momo can do a lot better, and May was fantastic (she does have her moments). But as long as Sven is trying to become a better person, I'm willing to give him the time to do it.

Is it cold in here?:
Is it cross-species or cross-racial?

I could argue either.

The biological definition of species would make them separate. On the other hand they can feel and love, which makes them human.

One could also argue neither (just for the sake of argument). Since an AI is technically not organic, one could say that technically one is not a different species or race, since they are not biologically any species or race. It's all semantics. After all, if they are designed to look human and feel human emotions, then the whole "being a robot" thing is just a technicality. And how could you determine what race they are, any more than you can determine what race a human is? The lines between races can get blurred pretty fast.

BenRG:
FWIW, most theoretical xenobiologists acknowledge that life does not have to be based on hydrocarbon protein biology to be 'alive'. It's just that it would be much harder for us to recognise a silicon-based life-form as anything except a rock unless it moved and greeted us.

torrrential:
One of the issues that concerns me and may be responsible for some of the confusing issues is that there has clearly been a development in the AI world whereas the main characters seem to be frozen in time.  The "twenty-somethings" that we met when the comic started should now be mid-thirties going on forty.
