Many believe that Bender, one of the main characters from the popular series “Futurama” fits the basic definition and aspects of what a robot is considered. Many quote Bender as a robot, but if following the definition of a robot versus what is described as an “automaton” by Jean Baudrillard in “The Automaton and The Robot”, the conclusion can be made that Bender should be considered an automaton instead. Bender insists on be self-acting throughout the show going about his life the way he sees fit, not following a pre-determined set function. Bender’s more so “free will” to go about his day mostly how he see fits such as a human, and his strives to be "human-like" deem him more characteristically an automaton than a robot, according to Baudrillard’s thinking.

I think they are really catchy ;-.)

Everyone thinks INTPs are oblivious, emotionless robots but seriously we actually feel TOO much and it’s like information overload because we can’t understand or process fast enough. We’re so curious about everything and want to research it and experience it (and that includes human interactions and relationships) and then sometimes it’s like WHOA TOO DEEP TOO DEEP SYSTEM OVERLOAD----SHUTDOWN----That’s why it’s easier to just go do some nice linear, logical math problems or fall into a Wikipit which is why we know so much about random subjects. Anything would be better, and easier, than facing our own emotions. I guess we really ARE lazy! XD
