Just finished reading Cyborg by Martin Caidin β the novel that inspired The Six Million Dollar Man. If you grew up watching Steve Austin leap in slow motion or remember that red jumpsuit action figure with the bionic eye, this oneβs for you. From Cold War tension to cutting-edge tech (for its time), the book holds up in fascinating ways. Nostalgia, robotics, and a few surprises along the way. https://jrogel.com/just-read-cyborg/ #SixMillionDollarMan

So the robot Assassin TV movie from 1986 was actually pretty interesting. Here's a (checks notes) male fembot who can learn, withstand bullets, carry on a conversation and satisfy a woman sexually, but his programmer has programmed a secret grudge list, so he goes off on a spree, and the Agency has to stop him without alerting, say, Congress that he even exists. Oh and trapping him activates his self destruct mechanism. So far ahead of today's robots it's ridiculous. And he's indistinguishable from men in 1986. As if.
