And he was a manipulative asshole precisely because he is smarter than everyone. Normal shit.

He did need lame imo because "she" was the latest version of AI's he was trying to perfect to manipulate humans in one regard, but it's only under his control, which dork boy took as some sort of ethical travesty, which imo was the writer and director saying "dawg they're robots. Those rules don't apply here."

Nice little character studies all around, that were well acted, with dope ass composition and colors.

You didn't dig it? Good for you.
