Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.
As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.
Thank you and happy chatting!

They beat you over the head with the metaphor multiple times in the show. The main character has conversations with the hivemind ripped straight from AI chatbot logs.
minor spoiler
At one point she jokingly asks them for a grenade and they give it to her, not understanding the subtext/danger.No they understand the danger fully. That is also why they hesitate with giving her a nuclear bomb, but state that if it makes her happy they would still do it. They are fully cognisant, they both know facts and can put those facts in context. We see that they are, for instance, fully capable of understanding the emotional importance of the hats.
I don't feel like you can spoil much since literally nothing that has any actual relevance to the narrative has happened since episode 1.
spoiler
Except maybe the introduction of the paraguyan guy, the milk, and possibly maybe the introduction of the pirate lady or whatever her name is in episode like 2.
