And Now For Something Different

Last week, I saw a film with at least one android character. And it got me thinking about character design in regards to androids - robots that appear human - which led me to one very important question: Why are androids always so clean cut and organized?


I suppose this has something to do with our perception that artificial intelligence is organized, clean, logical, and unemotional. But if you wanted people to be more trusting or comfortable around your android, would you not want to build in some sort of flaw? That's why my next script will be developed around an artificial human that looks like this:


I think I'll name him Artie.
