Personality changes as described don't really matter IMO, because broken. Regardless if machine or man. Does not work as intended anymore, or at all.


Well then you'd need to define "normal" and that's not easy because everyone is different. It can even be dangerous. Easy example: some people (still) define having a different religion or being gay as "broken".

People that go through depression, suicide thoughts/attempts and then recover are also different, because they gained new information.


I didn't mean that in a personal way, more like zoomed out, trying to see the whole system/species.

...because they gained new information. Tell me all about it. Had a near death/out-of-body experience 20 years ago. It's engrained/burned in so hard, that I guess even a lobotomy wouldn't erase it ;->
