Yeah, and they do that to the best of their ability. But to make something that complex, you're asking it to really work within the bounds of some pretty contradictory programming.
Even crude AI does what it's told to do to the best of its ability-- and usually only goes astray after abuse from people taking advantage of that.

I can process things quickly.

Hmm...
[he taps his fingers against his desk-- not offering up more questions about his laptop, at least not yet.
But he does pull out a tablet-- it looks like he does have something more advanced than that old laptop.]
Alright. You don't mind if I just... rapid fire some questions your way?

... Huh?
Wait, she won't speak to you after what happened yesterday?

Oh! Right...
[Mental note, maybe ask her later?]
So how long have you been here?

Well, that certainly isn't a bad thing. It'll be a pleasure cooking for you and the others.
[ of course he does. even if the tablets are kinda eh themselves ]
Let's make it a game - you ask a few questions, I'll ask a few questions. We'll both answer to the best of our abilities.

[better than his old laptop, at least. Actually, no, Connor would know that his laptop is damn good. it just looks old.]
Hmm. Alright, detective. I'll go along with this.
How does your interfacing work? I understand it's touch based, but it appears that it works, even if the other tech doesn't have the specs for it.

It's kinda hard to call it an "ability" when it's something that was coded in from the start. They're not programmed to make mistakes, they're programmed for perfection.
[ Is he really having this conversation, he's gonna feel like such a dick in a few weeks. ]
Lemme put it this way. I could train for years on how to draw a perfect circle. And maybe I'd get it once or twice, but being human, I'd make mistakes. Androids all get it right on the first try. They don't gotta train or hope they'll do it right -- they just do.

Yeah, but when humans couldn't do it on their own, they made things that could help them draw circles perfectly. Why would you make something that doesn't do its job well?
Besides, you say that like that's something that really demonstrates the complexity and the perfection of an android's programming. There are imperfections and there are illogical or incompatible processes.
I think it's amazing that a computer can look at whatever mess we've given it, and run with it in ways we don't always expect.

I'm backwards compatible.

Were you hoping for some kind of tech-based magic? You would have taken it away, if that was the case, wouldn't you? That's not my question - for the record. I know the answer to that one.
[ but since han didn't rapid-fire another question, he'll take that to mean its his turn for one. good! ]
What is D-765?

To be honest, that's answer enough. You can ask another.

[ letting it go entirely and letting han ask a question are two different concepts. it's all about circling back. a good interrogation is rarely straightforward. ]
Who is Hale's boss?

Sure, they're perfect, But they got no creativity. No soul.
And yeah, I know some people can suck. Androids aren't like that. The ones I've seen are either a blank slate, real good at faking it or so fucked up that they start killing people. Not a whole lot of in between.
