| Jun 8, 2018 at 23:17 | comment | added | Agi Hammerthief | @Kevin Given how bad the droids are at combat, I don't find their verbal communication incongruous. (They're badly designed/implemented, so why should that flaw be worth special mention?) | |
| Jun 8, 2018 at 20:31 | comment | added | Kevin | I think the bigger question is "Would tactical battle droids communicate via spoken word? And need to say "Roger" twice every time they acknowledge something?" | |

| Jun 7, 2018 at 10:05 | comment | added | Flater | @StephenG: Was everything built from the ground up? Because if e.g. SkyNet had been deployed with an AI that automatically designs user friendly debug windows for new software that it creates; it may never have reconsidered doing so (when creating Terminator) because no human has ever managed to access these debug windows (e.g. because of SkyNet's assumedly perfect network security). | |

| Jun 7, 2018 at 3:02 | comment | added | Thorsten S. | Another more intuitive way: In a movie, when a character is thinking, we hear a strange voice from the off while nobody is speaking. In reality, we don't hear (hopefully) voices when we are thinking. The HUD is really only depicting the thought processes in the machine because otherwise we cannot depict its eerieness. It is also menacing to see a machine categorizing humans. | |

| Jun 5, 2018 at 17:32 | comment | added | vsz | You answered it yourself with mentioning the "convenient way". When extraterrestrials or ancient Romans or animals speak among themselves in English in a movie, we all know that they don't really speak English in-universe, it's just for the convenience of the viewer to understand what they are talking about. | |

| Jun 5, 2018 at 12:04 | comment | added | StephenG - Help Ukraine | It is odd that the Terminator cyborgs and related robots would have such a thing as under no circumstances would they design the equipment to be accessible by the humans they're trying to wipe out. | |
