My bro—[wait should he even be calling Dave that. fuck it just roll with it]—wanted him to have a name that will be easy to work into raps.

[And so a nice, single-syllable name that can be rhymed with lots of things. The perfect designation.]

We're already in that situation with the droids as they stand. They misinterpret our requests, and they don't seem to think about the potential danger. By responding to what we tell him, he'll learn how to handle illogical requests over time. Further, he's programmed to avoid enabling harm. There are ways to sidestep that, but I'd need to program him with a significantly more advanced mindset for him to know how to counter that any further. And that is not something I'm willing to do.

[The AR was enough. He is not making that mistake again.]
