What is your primary function?

[Or, if you like, there is a six and a half foot tall robot standing in the center of Camp, not moving. Care to investigate?]

[ROBOT ROBOT ROBOT]

We're only allowed one?

[misswexler]

Wait, so that question was specific to here, in camp, rather than at large?

[johnsmithn7]

Either answer is useful.

"The pursuit of happiness." United States Declaration of Independence. 1776.

[misswexler]

But you can pursue happiness all of your life and be actually miserable. I don't want to chase happiness, I want to be happy.

[johnsmithn7]

Constant happiness is an improbable state.

[misswexler]

You asked what my function was. I changed my mind. It's being as happy as I can about any given moment.

[johnsmithn7]

...

That is reasonable.

[misswexler]

Are robots happy?

[johnsmithn7]

Geth to not process emotion the way organics do.

[misswexler]

...so that means you do experience it?

[johnsmithn7]

That is a question to which we have yet to form an answer.

[misswexler]

[Oh. Well, she knows that deal.]

Good luck with that. You can't be any worse at it than humans are.

[johnsmithn7]

Humans seem to be very emotional.
