I want to have the evil toaster from new Vegas in my kitchen
Ed-E was definitely sentient and even had a personality. Both Victor and Yes man also have sentience and personality as well. Both of these I doubt their creators intentionally put it, Enclave and Mr. House respectively, as they wouldn't care or bother as long as they did their jobs. I feel because of that they either developed it probably through interactions or some other reason.
Just walk a bit with codsworth you will have all the answers you need And KLEO too, the only assautron ingame to break her programing and develop free will (ada doesnt count because she was literally and fisically changed completely by jackson)
What’s your favorite robot in the series? I think mine’s Primm Slim, as he has a funny hat, and even funnier boots.
Here's my take before watching. It is impossible to know. Much like today's AI, or I guess even with other humans, we cannot confirm sentience without being the other person. One cannot take a seat in another person's mind to truly know if they are sentient or emulating sentience.
Definitely not the ones written by Emil Pagliarulo
I'm surprised you didn't talk about Miss Edna in Diamond City, if you reassure her about feeling human emotions, she'll get married to the schoolhouse teacher next time you come to the city
The main sink personality in the big mt tells us that they aren't actually artificial intelligence's and are basically just advanced chat bots, I assume this applies to most of the robots we see in fallout
well, with that DLC in FO4, I'd say yes. many are indeed sentient.
Before watching...I think some do gain sentience (or are born/created with it), some have clever programming, and some are advanced machines.
Festus is too advanced to be qualified on this list and definitely tops any gen 3 synth anyday
I believe there are model variants we don’t necessarily see between individuals, as they aren’t marked or explicitly labeled. Between one model to the next, there was a point in which robots needed sentience dampening within their protocols, as they otherwise developed personhood. These models would inevitably decline in maintenance after the war, and their protocols would degrade: unlocking their innate sentience.
I would say they were given more protocols and things that sound like us but you wouldnt see any nonmodified robot be able to sing and dance! It like how dogs and cats got aspects of it but not "all" of it.
What is life, are we all not just a machine that learns from birth

Are fallout robots submissive and breedable?
