It's wild just how much they're trying to shove AI down our throats.

clankers should be segregated from society. oh and to the hexbear people: "clanker" is technically NOT a slur. seriously!

You said something about clankers in your post. It reminded me of something they'd refer to battle droids as in star wars the clone wars. That is Captain Rex, one of the main characters

"clankers" is a term that's being used for ai bots in a pseudo-negative way, i think

Must be an extension from the Star Wars root. The "clankers" in the show were stupid too.
