[rin, at least, knows that delita has made an effort to become more technologically adept... and that his world is nowhere near this level of technology. it's definitely been a learning curve, to say the least.]
"Artificial Intelligence" - the name suggests that essentially, it is a human mind, but created by being constructed rather than born. Is that correct? And Archer (is that your name, sir?) suggests that they have physical forms that, for all that matters to us, appear to be like one of us.
[this requires some thought. conceptually, like... he gets it, and he doesn't. it's a lot to take in, how to process this idea and combine it with other ideas about processing power and servers and all of that. it feels like he's being taught to swim by being thrown into the ocean.]
I suspect both of you will laugh at my question, but what is the difference between them, and us?
[it's possible that this is a philosophical question... but it isn't actually, delita just doesn't know how else to put it. he doesn't mean morally; the morals of the situation, like most situations, haven't come up in his brain. it's more "what makes it so we should treat them as anything other than human", in terms of how to deal with them.]
