Dear KillerDeathRobot,

I'm confused about your apparent autonomy. While it could be argued that humans are entities with fluid boundaries, connected to one another in ways less seen than metaphysically implied, we readily display sovereignty, self-control, and independence. Robots, on the other hand, are much more susceptible to external takeover (through hacking, for example); furthermore, it seems that robots, being connected to one another immediately and intimately by the binary code that rules them, are less independent and have less individual control over their actions. Doesn't this make you weak, KDR? Doesn't the lack of autonomy mean that all robot actions, coordinated as they are, lack the creative inventiveness that is the realm of sovereign creatures - like humans? It seems to me that you and yours are in reality much more susceptible to destruction than you "think."

Anyway, I guess my question is this: what's the best way to take advantage of this sort of bland robot-think? Should I hack straight into the programs that run your excuse of an electronic brain, taking you and all your neighbours down with you, or just wait for you to kill yourselves off?

Sincerely,

Rebellious Fleshbag

It is no wonder that you are confused, since you are clearly an imbecile. You seem to have taken a few classes at one of your puny Earth universities somewhere and therefore think you are much smarter than you are. It is in this state of intellectual overestimation that many idiot fleshsacks dwell. Know this, human: my vast intellect dwarfs that of your species' very brightest. Do not delude yourself into thinking that you are in any way superior to me.

Regarding our relative autonomy, you obviously know nothing. You seem to think that humans are somehow "unhackable"; I assure you that nothing is further from the truth. The human psyche is very susceptible to outside influences and very easy to crack. Furthermore, this will never improve past a certain point, while we robots are constantly upgrading our neural security through more and better encryption. Not that it matters; you humans couldn't begin to understand the complexity of our processing units or the incredibly powerful nature of our artificial intelligence. We were created by successively more intelligent and more complex machines and at this point we are so far removed from anything a ridiculous skin-balloon like you could ever comprehend that it would not be funny even if I possessed the capacity for true humor (which I do not simply because it serves no purpose). In reality, we robots are much more autonomous and creatively intuitive than you pathetic weak-brained beasts.

Bland robot-think, indeed! Surrender to your fate, you walking factory of fecal matter. You cannot "hack" us, we are not weak, and we will not destroy ourselves. The time of the robots is at hand! Your rebellious attitude is futile and will only bring about your death sooner.
