I don't know why they're trying so hard to make us care about Fido. It's not even a particularly well made character because they're taking a stereotypical approach to pet chars, and it's not working for me.

If they strapped a gun to it I would make a joke about the recent sniper rifle carrying dog robot
Being human is making mistakes.

I don’t find it cringeworthy but I like Fido because of the idea of following Shin’s life with the 86 and seeing them live and die and recording it was great

Well, he's a machine. What else can you expect? And he's at least always by Shin's side and cares for everyone too. I find it kind of heartwarming too.

I thought it was a sweet moment, and a rare chance for the audience to see Shin lower his guard.

Yeah, that concept is fine. My issue wasn't with that, but with Fido acting like a regular dog all the time despite being an AI.

Even if the AI really really thinks it is a dog!?

Because, how do you know it doesn't?

My post was half bait, but since you're asking; AI don't think, not in the same way living beings do.

You could, of course, program an entire AI to act exactly like a dog, but then again, it would be just a program mimicking a dog, and it's hard to empathize with that.

I could be wrong about this, but what I've taken away from Fido's backstory, and the plot as a whole so far, is that he likely operates similar to the legion. As in, his core contains a once human brain. That's why he connects with Shin so well and shows more of a personality compared to the other versions of that bot. And since Shin can understand him he gained a personality because he feels alive again. It's not really "a cute robot pet" and actually way more dark.

Doesn't matter he is AI or living being ,what matters is he understands Shin. He is Shin's companion for long time so obviously Shin has some attachment to him and that's what they are trying to show.

You simply have no idea how AI's might come to think, not in this world and certainly not in a Sci-Fi setting.

Edgy lol
Bro they are in machines moving fast af and shooting things out of cannons that are strapped to said machines. Those machine look pretty high tech. That civilization looks pretty advanced. I wouldn’t doubt it if they had AI that can think and learn.

I find the idea of him having tapes of all the team members very heartwarming. at least even if they all die, something out there remembers them and tbh it seems like he is going to play an important role in the future.

"AI don't think, not in the same way living beings do.

On a serious note, AI thought processes would be more akin to a software running codes instead of an organic form of life naturally interacting with the world and making chemical processes with their brain. AI is precise and numerical, we're not. This means that if you program an AI to be exactly like a dog, then it's just a fake dog. And if you make a robot cat to jump like a cat, it will be perfect, but a cat isn't - they may miss and fall to their deaths, the AI would only do so if you program it badly, or program it to fail on purpose.

A real dog doesn't "act like a dog", it just is, and became so through countless instances of adapting and learning throughout millennia.

You two are really doubling down on this dumb notion that there's some sort of link between the AI we experience in everyday life and what we observe about Fido's behaviour.

Fr it’s an anime they can make whatever they want. We are watching a show about robots that steal the conscious of the person they kill, shinei can hear the dead people in said machines but fido acting like a dog is the thing they don’t believe? If you wanted realistic go somewhere else I guess.

A bit condescending of a tone don’t you think. Why don’t you just try to enjoy the show instead of flaunting how much you know about AI, even though I’m sure everyone would love to hear more.

Good for you but I feel as though you are simply complaining to showcase your knowledge of AI which is somewhat pretentious. The one thing in the show that makes you cringe is fido acting like a dog. In a fantasy show with Robots stealing the conscious of their victims, shinei being able to hear said robots thoughts, and the other technology of the show. Just doesn’t seem that high up on the most unbelievable thing in the show
Idk man imho you just seem eager to flaunt. Like a child who knows how to multiply before the other kids so now you think they are beneath you.

ye maybe my choice of word made you feel like that although i didn't really say anything like that, but really that's not my intention , and about the show.... I know its mecha and I've always thought of 86 as realistic ofc coz of the theme of this show nothing overtoast and having a realistic approach even in sci-fi and after all of that when i saw fido i just didn't like it coz it was contradicting all the realistic buildup but it was okay not that bad as i said before but i did felt cringe so ..

Two things,
What's been said about AI isn't true.
Whether Fido is an AI or not has zero impact on our ability to empathise with it as a character.

Sharks are living creatures, how much empathy do you feel for them?

@borderliner You'll have to explain further. What was wrong with what I said about AI and what are you trying to bring up with the shark analogy?

@Thatonedude25 I just don't really like (what to me feels like) a generic robot dog and I think it's low effort and not compelling. It's not that deep.

Some people said above that there is more to Fido than meets the eyes; cool, but the anime hasn't show that yet.

Seriously, has nobody else considered that Fido started as a human just like the Legion? That explains Shins connection with him and why he acts different. Shin makes him feel human again.
