Would a second of hesitation in the midst of battle be acceptable?

Would a level of instinctual NPC autopilot suffice?

Wouldn't that depend on the complexity of the code? The BIOS only being basic when compared to the greater complexity of the main OS?

Is it not likely that his creator placed his brain in his torso for better protection?

Is it not true that his creator lied to him and stated that his human brain had been used?
Reading the story, didn't it turn out that the second statement was true?

Perhaps his brain is elsewhere entirely and transmitted to the body?
Doesn't that sounds more like the Tangent version of Plastic Man or Aquaman (man in a coma remotely controls a plastic/water body)?

Wouldn't moving the brain around in the body be more like something a shapeshifter would do?

Perhaps god is pure consciousness and our brains are simply nets that capture/latch-on-to a tiny fragment of it?

Can you prove or disprove the existence of a non-material being by material data?

Can I go with the standard not of a physical nature as the definition?

Is it not true that in any debate, definition of terms is the first task?

So there has to be agreement before any possible disagreement?

Is there an example of anything that is "not of a physical nature"?
