I mean⦠Glados does look suspiciously like a bound woman hanging upside downā¦
For anyone who hasnāt seen it:

⦠well fuck
i refuse to believe that tumblr doesnāt find christian borle sexy
Maybe theyād do better against someone else, but cāmon. Itās GlaDOS. 10:1 odds she wins the whole thing
yeah thereās no way glados loses unless thereās some highly r34ād robot i donāt know about in the contest

My moneyās on Aunt Fanny.
oh no what is that
From the movie Robots:
thatās disgusting
wheremy friend saw this on my phone and now i reeally need the source just to make sure we both never see it again
XJ-9? Maybe? 2B if that even counts as a ārobotā.
oh so thatās the name, thanks
i will absolutely not look anything up right now
Androids are literally what you call robots with human forms. C-3PO is an android and a robot, as are 2B and EDI.
when you can literally do a perfect cosplay of an android by putting on some specific clothes, itās for all intents and purposes not an android anymore.
Itās like someone entering into a strongman contest with an exoskeleton suit that lifts everything for them, thatās not following the spirit of the thing.
Letās celebrate with some neurotoxin.
no offense to Vox but Iād pick Mr. āAntā Tenna over them. they stood no chance against GLaDOS
Coughing Baby vs hydrogen bomb
stupid sexy clanker
are they a clanker if they have at least partially a digitized human consciousness?
damn thatās like a philosophical question.
But in my opinion, if itās a real human consciousness and itās the one itself that have total authorithy for their body, then I think itās human. Like cyborg.
Except when it is not entirely independent, like stalkers in Half-Life 2, theyāre under control of someone else. Or Half-Life headcrab zombies where itās under control of the headcrab, but the human is terribly miserable. I think killing the zombie would put that misery to end which helps the hijacked person.
If itās not a real consciousness but merely an LLM spit out of the personsā lifetime social media personality data, then itās a clanker.
I think this is kind of more realistic, social media corporation will launch a feature that āreviveā a dead person as a personality that people can interact with, but they will try to humanize it as much as possible in the marketing language, implying itās a real consciousness while in reality itās just LLM built on top peopleās data.
But who am I, Iām not a philosopher.
but none of these are what glados is, glados is like if you put a brain into a robot which creates horrible new urges and filters your sensory input, and after some time youāre just a different person due to all the trauma and how fucked your interaction with the world is
I completely forgot what post am I in š I kind of feel like sheās a just a sentient AI, controlled by personality cores and tasked to do the jobs Aperture Science is supposed to achieve.
What made me feel that way is because thereās a possibility/implied that Caroline didnāt consent to be put into glados, and the fact that glados can also be activated & deavtivated by Aperture workers. Also since her personality can be adjusted, like when she has high urges to murder, the Aperture workers just put morality core.
Also Iām not sure if Glados is properly aware that sheās doesnāt live in the same body as Caroline then nor Iām sure if glados know that Cave Johnson is dead. Or if did she ever found that out, I donāt remember, I donāt remember much of Portal 2.
I suppose sheās more like omnics in Overwatch. Omnics are like sentient robots. But in Overwatch, omnics are treated closer like a human than ordinary robots.
I mean what Overwatch did is to make an allegory to IRL systemic racism. But since realistically now in real life omnics are still not human, so my position is that both omnics & glados, a very advanced sentient robots, are not human.
also I feel a bit weird that my personal stance is that pronouns (except āitā) isnāt necessary to a thing, or robot. But since the game uses she/her pronoun for glados, I just kind of went with that.
I usually feel like pronouns (except āitā) is just for human. But people do use pronouns to animals sometimes. I guess itās valid & not just for human.
Ultimately Iām not so familiar with it. English is my second language and my native language doesnāt have gendered pronoun.
GLaDOS is the robot people wanna have sex with, didnāt even have to see the results to know what theyād be.
More likely than you think:

Never heard of Vox, no idea what their voice or personality are like, but these results donāt surprise me regardless
!remindme somebody pleaseā¦
