We have a fun/interesting one for you this episode guys. The sprawling and surprisingly deep lore of the classic video game series, Mega Man. It’s a subject near and dear to Jbats’ heart, one which a lot of people would agree needed exploring. We use that lens to explore the idea of what would happen if robots became self-aware and the ethical worries that might evoke. So get cozy, diagnostics on this new model are gonna take some time to learn how hard it is to be human…
