Okay, recently I found out the information from Disney Wiki that AUTO from WALL-E is the only non-sentient robot in the movie. And I don't feel like that. :(

I am aware that he is meant to be an antagonist, the "villain" of the story as he follows his directives like there's no tomorrow. But, I didn't think this trait should define ALL of his personality. Like, he clearly had emotions and showed them in a restrained way. Or at least I thought he did?

I decided to rewatch it.

Warning: spoilers, potential grammar, punctuation mistakes. Excuse me, english is hard!

***

Why do I think AUTO is a sentient robot? My observations.

• Every bot on this ship is capable of emotions, when why an intelligent steering wheel isn't?

• Well, why, he actually has them! You can tell it by his body language and a tone of deep synthesized voice.

He expresses:

1. Frustration, annoyance.

- "CAPTNNNNN D:" – AUTO said calmly.

2. Surprise.

- He is genuinely shocked to see WALL•E with 'the p l a n t' on his head. I actually laughed at his reaction.

- "n ot pos sible! 0:" every now and when.

3. He is persistent and blutantly stubborn. Strict on himself. Some people can be like that without any directives.

- Captain McCrea needed to give AUTO 'a stern look' for him to share the information about directive. AUTO reluctantly obliged. (At least he tried to reason with Captain.)

- "sir, i INSIST you give me the plant." (Dutch Van der Linde voice here: "he INSISTS...")

- (And the whole plot obviously.)

4. Anger, fear. McCrea: – You want it? Come and get it, blinky.

Auto: – N O.

- "E N ouGh" 😡 *flips the ship around impulsively*

- "NOT POSSIBLE D:" but with more panicking tone.

- "NoOOo..." when he gets deactivated.

• The whole sequence with manual is... interesting.

- At this point of the story AUTO ordered GO-4 to steal the plant from EVE to make her look defective in Captain's eyes.

- I felt how much AUTO and McCrea are tired of each other's presence. AUTO is patiently anticipating McCrea's attention, he is eager to do his job.

(- Captain tries to imitate jogging in his seat and AUTO for some reason looks at him with puzzled and uncertain look. )

- AUTO keeps pretending like he doesn't know anything...

• Which is actually not a common thing for robots. "Lying is a human emotion." (c) HAL 9000

And yes, hiding the truth is considered to be lying too.

It's not like he was instructed to lie by his superiors, they didn't care. But rather it's the tactic that he learnt while being active for 700 years. I bet he understands it would be much easier to secretly yeet the plant into space without bothering captain with a decision. I suppose it required some thinking in his mechanical brain.

When why does he show the captain an operation manual? Good question. My personal headcanon: he loves doing his job so much, it doesn't matter for him if it can increase risks towards his global goal. That is why I can tell it wasn't a programmed, logical decision of the machine. If non-sentient perfect AUTO knew about A-113, he wouldn't let captain see the possibility at all. He hasn't considered that his domestic human pet might get interested in whole "Earth" thing. And he hasn't considered sentient WALL•E and EVE as serious obstacles. He did a crucial mistake to satisfy his ego... Or... Or maybe not? It's a headcanon, after all. Maybe it was a part of protocol. Or maybe he tried to entertain McCrea. AUTO seems to care about him in some way as he didn't push him out off the power until the last moment. (uwu) Choose whatever you like more. It's a thought-provoking subject.

• That aside, have you noticed that there is not a single character in the movie who would not be terrified of having to leave the comfort zone? It's only AUTO, who is opposing this idea for the sake of survival. Recolonizing nearly-dead Earth is not an easy work, someone can get really hurt and, well, die. And knowing that AUTO is based on famous computer HAL 9000, who is, in fact, killed people because of his panic attack (he didn't want to be deactivated/murdered), this situation kinda gets a new meaning? It's an interesting perspective to look at AUTO's character, too. AUTO, like HAL, at the start of story was okay and non-hostile towards others. Eventually, as the story progresses, AUTO becomes more and more impatient, eager to complete his primary task, thus taking violent measures. In AUTO's eye WALL•E & EVE are rogue robots anyway, defected and dispatchable. But attacking the captain? AUTO's final step to AI "madness" was fighting the man he is designed to serve. And though I believe he wouldn't kill him, we can imagine AUTO was panicking at this moment. So, no programmed logic there either, pure emotion of fear and reckless behaviour, almost like HAL. And HAL is 100% sentient and conscious entity.

*** Well...

Maybe it's just me and my anthropomorphizing tendencies on non-living fictional objects. I can be self-projecting too much, so if you disagree, let's say it's my headcanons and leave that at that. After all, AUTO is a direct representation of BnL – heartless company, that destroyed life on Earth and continued destroying it in space. They made humans, their customers, helpless like babies! And I am afraid it could only be worse in the future, if it wasn't for WALL•E and EVE.

It's quite a tragedy that AUTO can't escape from this never-ending system of least resistance and comfort. He is the system. He is made to be an autopilot of Axiom, he IS the Axiom, programmed to do his job fully dedicated to the mission of saving mankind. And if he was really fully-sentient... well, it would've made his life even more miserable. What's the use of the steering wheel on Earth surface? It's not like they are gonna fly into space again. Captain's dead and woah, hello eternal loneliness, next generation forgets about your existence or decides to ignore it like a bad memory about containment. Even AUTO's closest henchman GO-4 is forever destroyed... *sigh*

I am overthinking too much, aren't I? Gosh, this wheel NEEDS a redemption arc. And friends. My heart bleeds for him, really.

#AUTO is a sentient being #with poor life choices #nevertheless #give him a chance to be nice #I made it angsty in the end #analysis? #text #wall e #wall e auto #my thoughts #ai

Narkose durch Bücher · Kurt Tucholsky

Narkose durch Bücher · Kurt Tucholsky · Satire Literatur Liebe

»Und wenn alles aus ist ... « Es ist niemals alles aus. Alles geht weiter - eine sehr schmerzliche Erfahrung, die man erst ziemlich spät lernt. Alles geht weiter. Was aber, wenn es doch weiter geht, und man denkt, alles sei aus . . . was dann? Manche betrinken sich. Es steht einer Dame nicht wohl an, sich zu betrinken - wir sind doch hier nicht in Amerika. Nun, also dann: eine neue Liebe? Nie wieder Liebe ... ! In den Romanen vergessen die Heldinnen im Strudel des rauschenden und eleganten Vergnügungslebens ihren Kummer ... aber wo strudelt es denn schon und noch? Dann gibt es also nur ein Mittel, nein zwei. Das eine ist: Narkose durch Bücher. Durch welche Bücher kann man das Leid betäuben? Das kommt auf die zu Betäubende an! Ist es eine sehr kluge, eine sehr gebildete, eine sehr intellektuell trainierte Dame, dann mag es wohl sein, dass sie zu den Klassikern greift ... zu deutschen oder zu französischen oder zu englischen. In diesen Büchern steht gewöhnlich immer ein Teil mehr, als man bei der ersten Lektüre heraus gelesen hat. Man kann zum Beispiel in den Swift auch viel hineinlesen; das kann man nicht bei jedem Buch . . . Aber das ist noch nicht das Richtige. Das Richtige ist: das intensive Buch. Das Buch, dessen Autor dem Leser sofort ein Lasso um den Hals wirft, ihn zerrt, und zerrt und nicht mehr loslässt ... bis zum Ende nicht, bis zur Seite 354. Lies oder stirb! Dann liest man lieber. Musterbeispiel 1: Zu dieser Gattung gehört etwa Wallace, der es ja nunmehr schon etwas reichlich grob treibt, womit nicht gesagt sein soll, dass er es nicht immer so getrieben habe. Musterbeispiel 2: Prinzgemahl von Philipp Mac-Donald. Davon gibt es natürlich viele hundert Beispiele. Betäubt dergleichen ... !? Ja, es betäubt; diese Gattung Literatur betäubt. So, wie es gegen Kopfschmerzen ein wirkliches Universalmittel gibt: nämlich starke Zahnschmerzen -: so wird bei der Lektüre dieser modernen Märchenbücher nur ein kleines Feld im Gehirn angestrengt, der Rest ist gelähmt, er ruht . . . die Sache mit Martin wagt sich nicht hervor . . . für den Augenblick ist sie nicht mehr da . . . Der Autor schleppt die Liebeskranke (gibts!) durch die Dschungel und durch die Unterwelten der großen Städte. Es knallt und es brennt; die Heldin stürzt mit rutschendem Büstenhalter aus dem 44. Stockwerk, und unten wartet der Befreier, weiter! weiter! Die Leidende liest weiter. Sie liest, wenn sie allein ist, bei Tisch, zum Kaffee und den ganzen Nachmittag lang ... und wenn sie noch so ein Buch hat, auch noch an diesen langen Abenden, die schlaflose Nacht werden wollen, die Stunden wollen nicht enden, der Schlaf kommt nicht . . . Er braucht nicht zu kommen. »Mit einem einzigen Blick übersah Jack die Situation. Er ergriff den Konservenbüchsenöffner, der auf dem Tisch lag, und stürzte sich auf den Chinesen . . . « Faul wird die Sache nur dann, wenn in diesem Rumor plötzlich ein Kerl auftaucht, er zufällig Martin heißt. Martin . . . Dann lässt sie das Buch sinken, und der ganze Kram ist wieder da. Hat er sich nicht gemein benommen? Er hat sich gemein benommen! Hätte ich mich anders benehmen können? Ich hätte mich nicht anders benehmen können! Hätte ich ihm den Brief . . . hätte er mir den Brief . . . hätten wir uns die Briefe . . . äh! Einer, der Martin heißt, darf also nicht vorkommen. Aber sonst sind diese Bücher bunte Oasen, in die die Leserin aus der Wüste flieht, wo man sie so grimmig enttäuscht hat . . . Und es muss nicht immer unglückliche Liebe sein (gibts!). Da ist die Rekonvaleszenz: die süße Mattigkeit, die Zeit, in der sie alle gut zu einem sind und so leise und so rücksichtsvoll ... auch, dass sie ewig grünen bliebe, die schöne Zeit . . . ! Da sind dann mildere Bücher am Platz ... aber gut geschrieben müssen sie sein und sanft und hinreißend (Musterbeispiel: Raucat - Die ehrenwerte Landpartie). Glatt wie Öl geht dir das runter, die Seiten wenden sich so lind um, die Erzählung fließt sanft dahin, unaufhaltsam. Man muss nicht alles so genau verstehen, lesen genügt auch ... die Zeit vergeht ... die Krankheit entweicht ... die Gesundheit wächst langsam ... Kummer und Elend liegen grollend in der Ecke, niemand kümmert sich um sie, und das bekommt ihnen schlecht; denn das Unglück ist eine eitle Frau und will hofiert sein. Beachtet man es nicht, dann stirbt es. Wer wird denn gleich Kokain schnupfen, dieses Stimulans unserer Großmütter aus der Inflation! Bücher sind auch sehr schön. Aber es müssen die richtigen Bücher sein! Und so ist es denn das Beste, wenn die Dame den Herrn Martin gleich zu Beginn ihrer Beziehung fragt: »Sag mal - was rätst du mir zu lesen, wenn wir uns gezankt haben?« Wenn er so nett ist, sagt er es. Das wäre das eine Mittel, um den Kummer zu vergessen. Es gibt aber noch ein zweites. Arbeit ist auch nicht schlecht!

Heljarkviða II: Helgrindr brotnar

Óðins sonr andvana at Haðars hǫndum ok Lopts vilja, eftir sitja sigtíva synir ok heimakyn veglaus í svalheimi ofan. Bragar kvónar hvarma hrynregns herjar á mellu dólgs móðr æ síðan ok fjǫrtál magnask krafti með sorta gullslegins alar Forseta. Stála æski-Baldr kom heim. Nú hrings setr liggr frammi fyr inni sem blá half en half með hǫrundar lit sitr at Eljúðnum, skjálfti er markaðr þessu kalda votlendi aldrstila. Þá er Sleipnir snart Helgrindr, þá er hjaraflóð gjǫll rísa ok hylja eyðilendr með dǫkkrauðu eitri, þá er Nástǫnd ber ofgótt fǫlra gunnhvata náa. Þpa er Helgrindr brotnar niðr! Herþruma ok dolgeisa í dǫkkvandi regns hátunni, flækt i Ýmis skýja slóð, afhjúpa grimm ǫrlǫg guma!

Fyllisk fjǫrvi feigra manna, rýðr ragna sjǫt rauðum dreyra; svǫrt verða sólskin um sumur eftir, veðr ǫll válynd. (Vǫluspá 41)

Gól of ásum Gullinkambi, sá vekr hǫlða at Herjafǫðrs; en annarr gelr fyr jǫrð neðan sótrauðr hani at sǫlum Heljar. (Vǫluspá 43)

Hvellt hljóð klýfr þá níu heima sem þyngsk bǫnd bresta sundr ok kveldríðu stóð Varðrúnar viggja renna undan viðþolslaust. Garmr er sá nefndr, sem frá vatnsmynni Gnipahellis tveggja bági rennr til at færa at fjǫrslit þess eineygða áss gunnhvata óðann ok hans herlið frá Valhǫllu. Nú skelfr Jarðar hals ok linns blóðar miklask upp eftit, linna ei Ratatǫski at færa hergamms orð at Níðhǫggi. Jólna sumbl renna saman ok dolga fangs barr bersk hvor við annan. Nú hefsk Herjans tuggu leikr. Nú rís vagna græðir. Nú blæs ragna reinvári í sitt Gjallarhorn ok skilr við Himinbjǫrg hinsta sinni.

Hrymr ekr austan, hefisk lind fyrir, snýsk Jǫrmungandr í jǫtunmóði; ormr knýr unnir, en ari hlakkar, slítr nái niðfǫlr, Naglfar losnar. (Vǫluspá 50)

En Fenrisúlfr ferr með gapandi munn, ok er inn neðri kjǫftr við jǫrðu, en in efri við himin. Eldar brenna ór augum hans ok nǫsum. Miðgarðsormr blæss svá eitrinu, at hann dreifir loft ǫll ok lǫg, ok er hann á aðra hlið úlfinum. (Gylfaginning 51)

Frá austri ok frá suðri, frá bǫlrǫnn ok frá illskáu hermagni Niflheljar undirheima, Lokabǫrn ok Surts ætt, ǫll magna grimmiligt élregn umlykjandi glatan.

Troða halir helveg, en himinn klofnar. (Vǫluspá 52)

Hropts hjalmeldar gildar ok kvikyndi, Vana guðir ok Ymis niðjar, goð ok frumberi uppskorna visku, Einherjar at Valhǫll ok blóðorra bǫrr frá svǫrtum strǫndum, allir valbráð þeirrar miklu orrustu við Ragnarǫk. Ok þá skar Surtr Bifrǫst Surtarloga, dǫkkva slegin brátungl Marnars fǫðr, skipar at hrótgarmi ok mélar þau bensævar rǫnn sem dreyfask um jǫtna dolgs móðr.

Sól tér sortna, sígr fold í mar, hverfa af himni heiðar stjǫrnur; geisar eimi ok aldrnari, leikr hár hiti við himin sjalfan. (Vǫluspá 57)

En nú nýr elds heimr rís. Æsir snúa aftr ok Yggjar brúðr skal græn á ný verða. En þá er Níðhǫggr snýr aftr, sá allra landa endiseiðr, flýgr hann yfir vǫllu ok ber rauðs eggjar á vindǫr sinni. Valbráð ulfs tugga mun skjǫgra helvegar manns mjǫtvið á ný. Niðurum ok þvert á lífs heima, niðurum í hrollkalda dauða heima.

[ENGLISH - Helgrindr bursts asunder]

Baldr died by Hǫðr's hands and Loki's will, leaving gods and humans lost in worlds above. Rivers of tears bursting into lands ever since and mischief gains power by darkening the golden-shielded halls of Forseti. Baldr came home. Now he lies before the half-rotten queen of the snake hall, shivering engraved in this cold and wet lands of death. This is when Sleipnir touches Helgrindr. This is when sword-filled Gjǫll rises and covers the wastelands with dark-red poison. This is when Nástrǫnd is most filled with bleak-faced corpses of shielded sword-arms. This is when Helgrindr bursts asunder! Thunder and lightning in dark clouds, entangled in Ýmir's brain, unveil the bleak future of mankind!

The corpses of doomed men fall, the gods' dwellings are reddened with crimson blood; sunshine becomes black the next summer all weather is vicious. (Vǫluspá 41)

Golden-comb crowed for the Æsir, he wakens the warriors at the Father of Hosts'; and another crows down below the earth, a sooty-red cock In the halls of Hel. (Vǫluspá 43)

A roaring sound shatters the nine worlds as the heaviest wrist bursts asunder and the wolf of wolves starts to run without resistance. Garmr he is called, from the water's mouth at Gnipahellr he runs to bring death to the one-eyed god of war-madness and his army from Valhǫll. Now Yggdrasill trembles and snakes gorge their way upwards, giving Ratatǫskr no chance to bring the eagle's words down to Niðhǫggr. Words collide and brothers slay each other. Now axes start to play their game. Now waters starts to rise. Now Heimdallr blows Gjallahorn and leaves Himinbjǫrg forever.

Hrymr drives from the east, he has his shield before him, Jǫrmungandr writhes in giant rage; the serpent churns the waves, the eagle shrieks in anticipation, pale-beaked he tears the corpse, Naglfar breaks loose. (Vǫluspá 50)

Fenris shall advance with gaping mouth, and his lower jaw shall be against the earth, but the upper against heaven. Fires blaze from his eyes and nostrils. Jǫrmungandr shall blow venom so that he shall sprinkle all the air and water, and shall be on one side of the Wolf. (Gylfaginning 51)

From the east and from the south, from Hel and from Niflhel fierceful armies of the underworlds, Children of Loki and Muspell's people, all raise the furious storm of impending doom.

Men tread the road to Hel, and the sky spits apart. (Vǫluspá 52)

Æsir and beasts, Vanir and giants, gods and primordial harvester of wisdom, worriors at Valhǫll and murderers from the black sands, all die in the furious battle of Ragnarǫk. And then Surtr cuts Bifrǫst with Surtalogi, darkens the thrown eyes of Þjazi, commands the hasty one and smashes all remaining bodies to the scourged ground below.

The sun turns black, earth sinks into the sea, the bright stars vanish from the sky; steam rises up in the conflagration, a high flame plays against heaven itself. (Vǫluspá 57)

But a new sun rises. Æsir return and the earth becomes all green again. But when Niðhǫggr returns, the flying serpent, he flies over the plain and carries corpses on his wings. Slain people will wander the path to Hel again. Downwards and reversed to worlds alive, downwards to gloomy worlds of death.
