Man after all, would have created the automaton, and of the automaton realizes his/her existence was due to the efforts of a person or people would the automaton view them as godlike creators? Given that people would have created the automaton would they have a god complex feeling they have a say on how and what the automaton does, being they are the ones that gave it the ability in the 1st place? If the automatons decided not to live out the purpose for which they were created and go do their own pursuits, would man allow it and say it is all good, even though great effort was expended to create the automaton?
