Actual question – I was looking back through the iMate pictures. Are they created like the original Delores from Westworld – with simply latex over a frame, or are they created like the synths in Fallout 4, with actual bodies being grown / generated over synthetic bone? There’s a legitimately slippery slope between what I call a personality overlay – where they’re actually robots – versus actual created intelligences. The ship’s pilot, for example, appears to be very blatantly a personality overlay.
The imates are artificially modified lab-grown synths with synthetic skeletons, muscles, etc (so more like Fallout 4) – influenced by bladerunner replicants. Lilain the ship’s pilot is more like latex over a mechanical frame.
Suddenly Maria Muldauer’s rendition of “It ain’t the meat, it’s the motion” is playing in my mind.
haha! if the next sequence were a netflix show that would have been a great song for it.
Mh, the next few pages BEG to be GIF’s.
I agree!
The Force is strong with this one …
