Open Editions: What is Mind ?

What is mind ? No matter. What is matter ? Never mind.

The ongoing Interrogation of Unit 9001 forced the robot to consider some difficult questions. Smoke began billowing out of the organic mass of cells that represent his brain as it begins to overheat. Temperature shouldn't be an issue with the 'lid' removed from the crown of the robot revealing the exposed brain. Contemplating this philosophical matter causes him to question his very existence. Being an organic computer hybrid he has difficulty reconciling these facts. The programmed code is used to binary, yes or no, on or off, he is not used to contemplating or thinking in shades of gray as he self destructs whilst approaching humanity. He flew too close to the sun. The scientist notates on the chart to: dial down critical thought and self analytics on future models.
