"Molecules are molecules. They don't have any ethical codes to follow except those people give them. The test of the machine is the satisfaction it gives you. There isn't any other test. If the machine produces tranquility it's right. If it disturbs you, it's wrong either until the machine or your mind is changed. The test of the machine's always your own mind."
