Posting right before an update but I’m wondering if they’re going to give an imagination, along with free will to these guys. If they can make changes without limit in their own code then they've either got free will now or will have it soon. If this were a real thing I think each robot AI would have to really be clusters of AI to manage each other, with set-in-stone rules about what sub-AI can change in the others code, or else the larger AI would degenerate fairly quickly (maybe almost instantly if subjected to organized malicious external stimulus). Even something like that can and would be able to go off the rails but the same can be said for organic brains. Imagination can probably be evolved reasonably quickly as a byproduct of evolving heuristics and over generations might develop in some interesting ways. |

The only creature stated to possess "little to no imagination" is Jones. I never saw the robots as lacking it, even if it may not be the same as a human's imagination. And they seem to have had free will over the course of the whole story as well.
