Is she the pan-dimensional love child of starscream and pinkypie?  :psyduck:

--- Quote from: Perfectly Reasonable on 17 Dec 2018, 18:45 ---We know that AIs have libidos. ( an emergent phenomenon - not designed in ) So how are they able to satisfy their um, urges?

It appears that this depends on the sophistication of their chassis. Ranging from Bubbles to Roko to May. then there is pint-size   i'll stop now

It was kinda implied by JJ in #1658 that the libido was deliberately implemented. At least, that's how I interpret "No one is quite sure who decided it would be useful for artificial intelligences to possess libidos". Does not sound like it was an emergent phenom, but maybe a later comic backtracked on that statement a bit?

That statement could mean that experts were trying to work out who originated the 'libido' subroutine because they hadn't yet realised it was something that the AIs had decided for themselves. Was that the discovery that led them to admit that The Singularity had happened?

For comic #3897...

1. Did PunchBot (CPA) ever get his arm (& side) replaced (#3596)?   Otherwise I would say that arm is probably his, and hopefully this will not come back to bite the entrepreneur couple.

2. Robots in-recent...
