The deductive robots of the Foundation 3 season showed

This article contains Spoilers For “Foundation” season 3.

By the end of “Foundation”, the third season, the galaxy empire has become in the free fall, the first basis in the flow, and the second basis is the rise, The mule has been revealed (with development). One was ignored, but an important development of this packed season, though, did not eventually come. Quietly infiltrated a conversation in the penultimate episode, “The Paths You choose”.

In the end, Demerzel (Laura Birn) enter The very important galaxy libraryI held a meeting with Kalle (or anyone in the character of Rowena King). While Demerzel is struggling to calculate how to help the second institution knowing that it is a threat to the empire that serves it, Kalle summarizes the conflict, saying:

“Everything is a computer nightmare. You know that you can help the second foundation because you will have. What should be the output is now the inputs, and fall into the paradoxical ring.”

Demerzel, clearly in distress, breaks how you don’t know if the paradox “will fulfill my programming”. She does not understand her conflicting motives in the situation, mainly, guess everything. At this stage, Kalle says that both motives are an option, and that postponed betrayal is the best option. Demerzel looks satisfied and comfortable with the idea. Then Kali says something interesting:

“See how this helps make someone think about it? This is as it should.”

The informal point, which was made to a robot, is probably remembered from a robot, immediately a scene from one of the books of Isaac Asimov, but I am not talking about the novel “Basis”.

In the book “Robots and Empire”, two robots called R. Giskard Reventlo and R. Daneel Olivaw work together to develop the innovative and local Zeroth law. This is the fourth law of robots that come before the original three legislative statements in Asimov (do not hurt human robots, obey humans, and protect themselves, with this arrangement). Zeroth law allows robots to harm human beings, but only in defense or seeking to achieve the greatest fabric of humanity.

The Daniel Olivo robot, who helps in developing this law, is actually the same as Demirzel in “Basis”. The character is one of the primary Delivery of topics between Asimov’s robot novels and his basic books. By the basis time in books, Demerzel is busy applying the Zeroth Law, but the robot has not reached that complex reading of the three traditional laws of robots on their own. (I say “that” at this stage because in the books Demerzel is photographed as a man, in the show as a woman) He did so with the help of Giskard Reventlov.

In the book, there are extensive conversations between Giskard and Daneel because they determine what the Zeroth might be, and decide whether they can adopt the law, then learn how to apply it. This makes the scene between Kalle and Demerzel the classic Asimov moment where you learn robots by “having someone to think with him.”

A robot’s connection to thinking about it is fun, but there is a continuous question in my mind: Is Kali just another robot talking about the “biusies” and robots that continue in the true Asimovian style, or is it more than that? I was wondering this throughout the season. Back to Episode 2, “Shadows in Mathematics”, accompanied by Kalle Harry Sildon (Jared Harris) via a portal to an unknown location. When he talks about “the presence of skin in the game”, Kalle notes that “we cannot.” Moments before, the gate begins with a flash of red glowing from its eyes. easy. A robot, right?

But then, Rina King’s character has repeatedly indicated that she is not quite we think. She tells Demirzel about the likeness of the like in episode 9, noting that Harry thought she was a major radioactive and says: “I know what you wish to be. Like searching like. Robots are not designed to stand alone.”

All signs indicate a robot entity that contains parts of Kalle and others inside. But it is strange that Kalle was still very hidden when he faced another robot, especially at the end of the season, when the great “detection” was happening every day. I wonder if this means that it is actually a little more than that. I think this may be the first glimpse of the Guaian entity. Gaya is a living planet inhabited by humans (guided by robots) who act as a collective object. It is the place where the mule is located It is really important in the accounts of the subsequent Asimov Foundation In the coming seasons of the “Foundation” offer. Can Kalle be the first humor we get in Apple TV+ Adaptation for this live planet? This is possible – but the truth is that we will not get a strong answer even The fourth season now It appears in our waiting lists. Start the countdown.
