Hello.

I am curious about the general knowledge of androids in this place and thought I would ask a few questions, if anyone has the time to answer.

1. Do androids exist in your world?
If so, what are they like? Do they have humanoid appearances, how do they behave, are they designed to emulate human responses, et cetera.
2. Have you interacted with an android?
If so, what was it like? Did you know they were an android? Were they able to successfully 'pass' for human?
3. If androids exist in your world, were there laws passed in relation to them, their uses or 'rights'?
What were these laws? Did you witness them being broken? What were the consequences?

And I have another question, not relating to androids. Regarding emotions –

4. Are there methods available to assist in regulating unpleasant or extreme emotional responses? Preferably with 100% success rates, though I am happy to discuss tools with less guaranteed outcomes or results.

Please respond at your convenience. Thank you for your time.

[ The Turing Test? That's kinda like the Bladerunner thing, right, where you try to tell if someone is a robot or not? ]

Well the closest thing we have is things that make themselves look like humans. I don't know if you can say they were designed that way exactly? I think it was just a familiar shape they took.

[ The shape of their creator, after all. ]

Like a low batter light?

[ Oh. ]

I'm guessing this falls under the whole 'people are afraid of stuff that's different' vibe. Don't get me wrong, my experience was not entirely wholesome either but at the same time that was pretty much based on not wanting to be blown up.
