Re: 0165 - One sided drama

Lee doesn't even have the authority to give Zoa orders though, do they? It's entirely about being legally required, yes. As Zoa reminded us last week, all AI are legally required to be subservient to all humans Right. This isn't Freefall, where AI can be programmed to only have the requirement to f...

Re: 0149 - The purpose of sorry - 2020.08.10
