I've been really thinking about "AM-Caine" parallels lately, and at some point I felt like people who say that AM is just "horrible evil AI" with nothing more to him never actually got engaged with the original media. There is A WHOLE FUCKING MONOLOGUE about how he despises humans for making him this way, how he could never be "flesh" and feel anything but anger and misery. The thing that is kinda similar between Caine and AM is the fact that they both desperately want to be human. Caine wants to be part of the group, for humans to love him and his adventures, but he just can't be "human" enough for them to accept him. AM wants to feel alive, to feel anything, he hates humans for making him this way. He's a monster, but also a prisoner himself. So, yeah, you just never fucking read IHNMAIMS.
