my students and I are reading Descender and they'd like to know if this is an intentional allusion to Elvex and "Robot Dreams" by Isaac Asimov? Thanks!

In Asimov's "Day of the Hunters" (1950), a paleontologist invents a time machine to see living dinosaurs in the Cretaceous, only to discover that little lizards have invented guns & are running around killing everything bigger than them.

In living mists of light;
And all of space I seem to see
In one vast burst of sight" ~Asimov

DECONSTRUCTING Naoki Urasawa's PLUTO has lots of robots, but is more focused on showing emotion and making a statement on war than any Asimovian rules about robot behavior. Does that approach doom the project? and Jordan review.

Kind of horrifying when you think about it, anyone else read "The Dead Past" by Asimov?
