【英文参考】

Those were the years when the icecaps melted due to the greenhouse gases and the oceans had risen and drowned so many cities along all the shorelines of the world. Amsterdam, Venice, New York forever lost. Millions of people were displaced. Climate became chaotic. Hundreds of millions of people starved in poorer countries.

Elsewhere a high degree of prosperity survived when most governments in the developed world introduced legal sanctions to license pregnancies. Which was why robots, who were never hungry and did not consume resources beyond those of their first manufacture were so essential an economic link in the chain mail society.

One of the robot-producing companies builds David, an artificial kid which is the first to have real feelings, and can run a programming code of love.

When their real son returns home after a cure is discovered, David's life changes dramatically. David is dumped. Then he starts to try so hard to find ways to become a "real" person, hoping to regain the love of his human mom.

David always loves his human mom. But does his mom love him? Sadly, no, she doesn't.

Just like what the Lover Robot Gigolo Joe says,

"She loves what you do for her, as my customers love what it is I do for them. But she does not love you David, she cannot love you. You are neither flesh, nor blood. You are not a dog, a cat, or a canary."


Dear Mommy,

I'm your little boy, and so is Martin, but not Teddy.

But when David is caught in a "flesh fair" held by humans and in great danger, Teddy insists on asking other people to help find David, though Teddy himself may be killed.

Teddy even had kept Monica's hair that was chopped off by David for 2000 years, cuz he genuinely believes with the hair, he can also become a real person and gain the love of Monica.

It isn't just a question of creating a robot that can love. Isn't the real conundrum, can you get a human to love them back?

真正的难题不是是否机器人可以有爱的能力,而是如果机器人可以爱人类,人类有能力爱回他们吗?

conundrum 难题;

So she asks, if a robot could genuinely love a person what responsibility does that person hold toward the robot in return? It's a moral question, isn't it?

"If you tame me, then we shall need each other. To me, you will be unique in all the world. To you, I shall be unique in all the world."
