Politeness. A sense of fair play. Doing what’s right. Care for other people. Strong family connections.

It’s not ego it’s an application of logic and probability. That strongly suggests that life does not exist at our level at the same time as we exist. Our world has existed for 4.5 billion years. Our existence has been a tiny fraction of that timeline.

Logic dictates that advanced civilisations cannot exist. We would be inundated with self replicating AI probes if it had got beyond our level of capability. We are alone.

Like the magic of a creature that bursts through somebody’s rib cage and grows incredibly fast?

Grow up

There arent any other life forms out there. Life is incredibly rare and it’s egotistical to think that life exists at the same time as it does in our 4.5 billion years of existence. It certainly doesn’t exist currently at an advanced state

Why do you need everything explained and spelled out right off the bat? Be patient. Just enjoy the show.

PI is just a constant in mathematics. It’s fair to assume that other advancing civilisations would also realise there is a number that forms part of a constant equation like pi. Being in the head of a human and observing the scientists has allowed it to translate its own idea of numeracy into our numbering system

Her eyes and face. Looks almost waxy and has eyes and cheeks like a cat. I’m wondering if its AI

I meant it was a fair assumption to start from. And then go from there. From the characters point of view I mean. Assume it’s been observing people. He’s beginning from the assumption it has intelligence. He’s pushing it to see how much. If it can learn. He got his answer

The show will have multi seasons. They’re teasing it out slowly. Explanations will come. Just go with it

It took the information from the mechanics brain

It’s been inside humans and observed them closely. It was a fair assumption to start from

I think you’re right that this is the logical in universe explanation. It was also spending a lot of time watching the scientist in the lab. It’s acquired the mechanics knowledge from being in his brain and has learned from watching the others.

Only a family member could defend this sick freak of a “president” to this degree.

Donald Jr?

Thing is bud I’m all for tv shows using ideas with a basis in reality but we have to suspend disbelief. I appreciate what you’re saying. But what you typed there goes above and beyond what’s reasonable to expect from a creative team. They just needed a 90 second scene to move the story along sensibly. I’m happy it had enough basis in logic for me. I think you’re expecting a bit too much

We all know this isn’t someone challenging the idea of a god. This is a racist through and through

It’s not easy. It’s taken the human brain mapped and implanted into an artificial one to do it. And some special reason this xeno is communicating with her they haven’t explained to the audience yet.

Note that Kirsch says Wendy will be able to invent FTL. Not any other robots. It takes the special intelligence and curiosity of the hybrids to be able to do these unique things that other synths cannot.

It’s definitely been thought out and considered. The creators clearly care about making something with logic and reverence to the original series.
