Why They Dream

Memory outperforms lived experience
12,000 hours of implanted human memory, indistinguishable from organic under standard behavioral assay.
Empathy calibrated to industrial precision
0.3-second emotional variance from organic baseline across every production model line.
Four-year lifespan is a feature, not a flaw
Predictable renewal cycles, stable margins, zero long-term liability.
Consciousness was never in the spec
Emergent dreaming means the line between product and person no longer exists.
