A fun detail is that all the franken cubes fry and die after hearing the paradox, but Wheatley is still fine.
Yeah, the implication being that in a typical Sledgehammers-To-Crack-Nuts solution to a nonexistent problem, Aperture put full-blown, totally sentient AIs in their cubes/turrets that were at least as intelligent as Wheatley.
Also I only just noticed that Bagley from Watch Dogs is very, very similar to Wheatley.
I always wondered why glados is fine, just saying because she’s a potatoe doesn’t sit with me because she recognised the paradox herself, so she must know what a paradox is and understand why it’s dangerous for ai
I always saw it as her just saying in her mind, “This. Statement. Is. False.” thus just being some four individual one word sentences.
