You are warping the definiton of it. You have yet to tell his lies.
Added, the reason why I feel he is telling the true is because I understand how machines think. It's in absolutes if it is stuck doing it programing. It has no morality. It does see things as good or evil. It has not right or wrong. It 's a tool. The only way you can prove he is lieing is to point out that he is not doing his original programing. If you go by what he says , he is.
What you not understanding is that I don't belevie his salution is right. I just understand that he thinks he is right. This is just a defence of opinion. And even on that everthing he believesis basedon his creator belief on the problem that was forced on him.
And do you know what I did to solve it? ...I destroyed him.
I have consistently told you where he lies. You are distorting things. You apparently believe that someone is not lying unless they start a sentence with, "I am going to tell you a lie now".
Oh now we're back to people not understanding how machines think and you do. Which starts your logic circle again. He is not a mere machine. He is an advanced AI. If he is not an advanced AI, he lied. If he is he would at least be as advanced as EDI (a machine) that does think and that does feel and that does understand morality. She understands right or wrong.
This is crazy. In order to prove he's not lying you are going by what he says. "The only way you can prove he is lieing is to point out that he is not
doing his original programing. If you go by what he says , he is." You are trying to prove he is being truthful based on what he says. And even in this he contradicts himself. Hilarious.
He says his original programming was to find balance and peace between organics and synthetics. Yet he creates imbalance and war. He's supposed to prevent chaos. He causes it. He's supposed to keep synthetics from killing organics, yet he sends them to do just that. He even sent Sovereign to use the geth to do just that. The conflict between the geth and the quarians was not fully going on-they had both retreated and were not even fighting when Sovereign came in and caused the heretics to kill. So, the kid started the conflict. He also seeds the galaxy with tech that will ensure organics advance enough to create synthetics that he thinks will want to kill them. He's creating what he was programmed to prevent. If he does not seed the galaxy with reaper tech, the possibility exists (however slight) that organics will never create synthetic life. But he guarantees that they will.
He is definitely not just following his programming (gee sounds a lot like "I was just following orders" which is never a defense). He is not bound by his programming any more than EDI is bound by hers. If he is, then he is lying about his own nature and his abilities. But it's all moot because his intent doesn't even matter, his actions that do. He may not be evil, he may not be crazy, but his solution is. And so are the 3 solutions because they do solve his directive in just as warped a way as the reapers do. I agree he may be following his initial directive, but his solution is warped and he continually makes his solution necessary. The conflict will always exist because he makes it happen-was he programmed to do that?
