Jul 31, 2017 at 9:55 comment added Pharap "that governments/corporations would not attach AI to valuable things like buildings or vehicles." I had the same thought. AI wanting an entire otherwise usable ship scuppered upon their death seems like a good reason not to put an AI in a ship. Scrapping their CPU might make sense, but why scrap a whole ship?

Jul 31, 2017 at 1:31 comment added Andon While not applicable to spaceships, that could work for buildings. In the same way that some cultures remove the flesh and organs and re-arrange the bones of the dead, the building could be moved and put out to sea... or whatever is equivalent on that planet.
