> > Fortunately Anna can't create a zombie army, but I guess Drury might be most worried that her specs aren't definite - meaning that she's a fighting machine that's never really under control. It's like dealing with a human being.
>
> But he doesn;t go after other powerful human beings all guns blazing.

True, but none of them destroyed and then escaped a SPUD high-security area either. Though Yuki probably wishes she did, just for bragging rights.


> > It's more likely a human designed her. A robot like Utilizon lacks the abstract capability to think of the way Anna's brain is designed. Plus Utilizon, like the military, would want something easier to control.
>
> Ultizon is planning a robot dynasty. Maybe he wanted a bride?

He'd still want her easier to control. Otherwise it wouldn't be his dynasty anymore.


> > Most likely, her design was conceived by someone who made her to be friend or family rather than a minion. Which annoys the military to no end.
>
> Or a companion? Maybe Anna has more in common with Tandi than she realises.

That's possible too. A companion that excels highly at abstract thought so he can talk to her and not get boring predictable answers. So he can discuss his highly advanced theories with her, and have her comprehend.


> > She's powerful enough to fight and escape the recovery efforts launched against her so far because they can't exactly keep her secret if they send a dozen tanks and a few bombers after her. If she starts gaining too high a profile, though, keeping her secret is no longer an issue.
>
> Indeed.

All it really takes to kill her is a well-placed airstrike with a wide-area high explosive missile. That hasn't happened, though, because then SPUD has to explain itself to Congress when the public notices bombers flying over the city and a block-sized crater left behind.


> > So the only real danger there is how good an assassin she could become. She could kill any one she person she pleased and escape unscathed. Though if it happened enough, that would provoke an extreme military response too. Fortunately she seems to be picking up the Lair Legion's ideals so that's highly unlikely.
>
> It can still all go wrong - with a little help.

Oddly enough Anna has a healthy sense of fear. One of many emotions her creator gave her to help her regulate her own behavior.
