So on cyborgs....

Post by Cool Blue »

I just finished watching Robocop again and I'm piss drunk and I had a thought.


Wouldn't a cyborg, if it was built like robocop automaticallly think of itself in a first person sense becaue it's still biologically programmed too?

I mean. Take away the soul factor right and your left with just a biological body thing. Wouldn't the biolgocial DNA stuff make it think along the lines of I am, not I was?

But wouldn't he think he still was?

Where does he get this new "I" from?

Well maybe he can...

I still think the remaining tissue would naturally think in terms of 'I am' instead of 'I was'.

He still has a brain doesn't he. That means he can feel emotions and think for himself :shrug:
