What is up with the beings with the visors going 'beep boop, this one is not a person'? Unit Δ-44203 explains how it built an electronic face, why it did so and what consequences it experienced in a world where everyone is supposed to show an identifiable face all the time. Warning: this talk may be cognitohazardous and end up causing shifts in self-identity. — Can I see your face? — You are looking at it. What is up with the beings with the visors going 'beep boop, this one is not a person'? Why identify as a robot in a time where computers pretend to be human? How does one turn a respirator and an LED matrix panel into a face? Unit Δ-44203 is a robot programmed to be helpful and will be happy to explain [how and why it built a visor](https://query.44203.online/topic/visor/). This talk covers technical aspects: respirator choice, tinting with foil or dye, electronics and programming. It will also discuss social aspects: robot identity and interactions with others. Humans are fascinating creatures and say the weirdest things to it! Warning: this talk may be cognitohazardous and end up causing shifts in self-identity.
