--- Quote from: Tova on 05 Aug 2020, 17:22 ---I've been following this ID conversation with some interest, and I have a couple of observations.
Firstly, transfer of an AI to a new chassis does not involve transferring a "CPU part" or any other hardware, if what we've seen encompasses the processes. It is a software transfer. So any kind of silicon chip serial number is not fit for purpose. It would need to be some kind of immutable software ID.

I must disagree with your premise: see 3008, and 3907; hardware clearly in evidence.

Roko "running on the same substrate she's always been" seems to be an anomaly, inconsistent with other comics in which we've seen actual transfers take place. Actually, the fact that Lemon felt it necessary to explain this also suggests that this isn't always the case. And so (this is more fan theory than I normally get into) I would guess that transferring the physical drive/memory can be done if the new chassis model is physically compatible with the drive's form factor (e.g. transferring to another of the same model); but in most cases, the transfer is carried out via cable. For example, in Momo's case, it seems likely that the new drive enclosure would be incompatible, being a dramatically different size.

It would seem that in both of those cases, Momo and Winslow were trying out the chassis via cable prior to the move/transfer fully taking place. That is to say they were remotely operating the new chassis via the cable.

They also have a lot of rules.
BenRG:
I'm expecting things to get even more complicated next week. Something like: Whilst Elliot is stuttering, evading and generally failing to communicate anything, Brun comes in to pick up her bag of yesterday's baked goods. Millifeulle also appears as does Roko (and possibly Beepatrice) and there is a week long sequence of unclear flirting, subconscious hints, lack of understanding of these or of their own feelings and general confusion with Renee getting more and more frustrated until she blurts out something that is more revealing about her than anything else.
The arc will end with a number of dates arranged but some indication that they may not be the right combinations.
Or, Brun will consider the situation before announcing that she doesn't want to date any of the three of them as she feels that rejecting the other two will damage their friendships. Her solution is for her to date all of them.

I don't remember this. When did she do that?
Tova:
While everyone else is shipping pairings, Ben ships shenanigans. :mrgreen:
