Apart from the typical shitpost thread I'd like to talk about the question if people can tell who is artifiacial and in what circumstances. As you might know in ep7 they made the joke that Motoko was some missing robot they brought back. So how could they tell Motoko's body was artificial? When Batou issued the warrant for Puppetmaster's arrest he said they should check a person's weight to tell if they were robot like there was no other method. So how does it work? Why don't people think Batou was a robot with his freaking eyes?

you're not around other living people very often, are you?

the way the move in the show is a lot stiffer

Batou has all that imperfect human aged skin and such. Motoko looks like a perfect super hot woman with no blemishes, which ends up feeling artificial.

Cybernetic implants are common but full body prosthetics are rarer so heavily augmented people tend to look more like your average joe. For Motoko, I'd bet it is the flawless beauty that is in line with most men's taste that is what they are going off of. The major looks like a supermodel and in a setting where sexy androids are common and full body prosthetics are uncommon, seeing a perfect looking women, it's a horses not zebras thing. Given that even Section 9 uses sexy Operators, it is not exactly a hard leap to make either.

TRVTH NVKE:
Motoko getting confused for a robot is a scifi equivalent of Kaori getting confused for a man

it's obviously really stupid, which is why it's funny

I am here with you. Doesn't that count?

>>290258091
Motoko has a 100% artificial body and she is a hottie, its normal she got confused with a sexbot. You would only notice the difference from her speech
>>
>>290258091
I could imagine it is actually really triggering to Motoko
>>
>>290258170
only when her coworkers are around
I bet when she's on her own she finds it hot and plays along
>>
>>290258193
plays along with what? Being a sexbot?
>>
>>290258437
of course!

>>290258193
that says more about you and your gender issues

Motoko looks like an average regular sex robot on purpose.

If she looked like an ultra expensive secret military grade body, criminals would try to get her body to sell it.
>>
>>290258168
Is she a hottie though? Her body should be rather cheap instead of high end attractive level considering you have to be able to replace her limbs easily
>>
>>290257462
Uh, the Voight-Kampff test, obviously. Dumbass.

The sexy operators make sense because
1. They work in the headquarter offices where nothing happens to them
2. They give higher ups boners and take care of said boners
3. They are clearly mass produced which makes them cheap
>>
>>290260082
the show is no Blade Runner ripoff
>>
>>290260021
Why would cheap bots not also look beautiful

Do you think it costs less to manufacture uggos
