Quote on Blade Runner

How much did the movie Blade Runner get right? Don't know ? Well, the folks at BBC did some investigative reporting to answer that question. Here's a link to the article entitled,
"How much of Blade Runner has come true?" I'm especially intrigued/enthralled/frightened by this quote. "The movie raises this wonderful question: how do humanoid creatures feel about having been created by us and how do they deal with their human-made limitations?"

Are we ready to discuss this yet? I'm not sure, but Dr. Anne Foerst, an AI researcher at Massachusetts Institute of Technology and a Lutheran minister, who uses Blade Runner as a teaching aid... thinks we are.
