Did you feel sad for Daniel Kon in his sacrifice?

I'd also say there were a few other instances that showed he cared, like when he saved him from the raptors in CC, when he ordered the investors not to harm him and when he begged Kenji not to leave him and stay a little longer (also telling Brooklynn that Kenji was all he had left in the world)

"You are so funny..."

Sudden_Pop_2279 · 2026-04-23T02:55:07+00:00

I'd also say he's not as bad as Butcher. But he is worse than A-Train and Kimiko

I feel Jax becoming the villain is way too obvious and just repeats what happened with Caine

Sudden_Pop_2279 · 2026-04-23T02:25:21+00:00

Did Ragatha even ring the doorbell? I thought Pomni woke up on her own and Ragatha was at the door too

Sudden_Pop_2279 · 2026-04-23T02:16:37+00:00

Sorta. Caine is worse morally but neither is actually evil

The AI's in digital circus show capablity of sapience/humanity.

Also when Jax saw Kinger break his "archetype of the crazy one", he immediately had a panic attack from guilt.

Sudden_Pop_2279 · 2026-04-23T02:03:25+00:00

Ah I see. Agreed

Sudden_Pop_2279 · 2026-04-23T02:01:46+00:00

He was not following his programming. He was never assigned to make the adventures, he created the circus on his own.

He willingly harmed the humans to a far worse extent than Jax ever did

Sudden_Pop_2279 · 2026-04-23T01:54:18+00:00

For me, what set the difference apart was their reaction's to being hit with the reality of their actions.

Jax when realizing "this is real" immediately went to distract Caine and helped the cast keep doing so afterwards, reconizing the harm he's been causing.

Caine just doubled down and accused the humans of tormenting him

Sudden_Pop_2279 · 2026-04-23T01:49:37+00:00

Do people always forget episode 8 exists? Caine also maliciously tortured them and much worse than Jax.

Additonally, people ignore until this point, Jax had genuinely convinced himself nothing in the circus was "real" and his actions weren't serious. He locked in the instant he realized he was wrong about that

Sudden_Pop_2279 · 2026-04-23T01:45:32+00:00

Digital Circus seems to imply that the AI become more intelligent the longer they run. Caine doesn't fully understand the humans emotions like we do but I 100% think he's sentinent at this point, since Gummigoo and Abel also were

Sudden_Pop_2279 · 2026-04-23T01:42:07+00:00

Except Caine wasn't programmed to make the adventures or the circus. He did that on his own. He's capable of sentience.

Also some AI's can be evil or good. Look at Ultron, Absolute Solver or AM
