Consciousness Does Not Imply A Will To Survive

SN. I’ve said this before. But I don’t believe a basic conceit of the Matrix, Blade Runner, other robot movies. That being: something that’s conscious automatically has a will to survive. Don’t buy it. They’re clearly not co-dependent. Things have a will to survive and propagate without being conscious, e.g. bacteria or whatever. So why must something conscious necessarily want to survive? I dunno, I don’t think it’s necessary. It would be an interesting movie, I think. Blade Runner touched on it but I dunno, I thought the movie was boring.
