DADES Chapter 5

This chapter gets really interesting with the Rick and Rachel. Rick giving Rachel who he finds out is a android a empathy test, only to discover that the nexus 6 have some program or technology that gives emotion or a little feelings. I think this is really weird and confusing, if humans give machines organic flesh and synthetic brains and then add to them with emotions sooner rather then later the machines are going to kill all of the humans.

This book reminds me alot of the terminator movies were machines were made to protect two sides of a world war but the turned on there controllers and took over the world. I think DADES is really confusing so far and i want to see if Rick retire the other androids.

Good Aziz! Yes, DADES is confusing. No question about it. The Terminator movies do advance some interesting ideas about machines "taking over." If machines can make machines (like robots making cars) we may be if for a future very very different from the world we know today.

Have you seen I, Robot? Here we also see robots that move beyond their original purpose, and like the monster in Frankenstein, they rebel.
