Pretty Much Pop #144: Androids and Us | The Partially Examined Life Philosophy Podcast | A Philosophy Podcast and Blog (opens in new tab)

Do movie robots want to love us, be us, or kill us? Mark, Lawrence, Sarahlyn, and Al talk through various ethical and narrative problems having to do with the creation of artificial life. We all watched M3GAN and Steve Spielberg's A.I., and also touch on After Yang, Ex Machina, Bicentennial Man, the BBC show Humans, and of course this is an element in classic sci-fi properties like Alien, Blade Runner, Star Trek, etc. For more, visit prettymuchpop.com.
