robots learning to emote šŸ¦¾šŸ¤–šŸ¦¾šŸ«€

Books where the robot or android or AI (not stupid real life AI) learns how to be human or human-adjacent. That MUST be part of their arc, even if it’s multi-book. (For example, The Monk and the Robot wouldn’t count because Mosscap is so well adjusted already).

Some non book recs for this trope/vibe:

A Bleak Midwinter by Ali and Kat on Webtoon Detroit: Become Human (video game) - probably the best example of this trope ever! Murderbot (the tv show) Companion (movie) - esp if you liked Anniebot Wild robot (movie) - different than the books but still good Mass Effect (video games) - particularly games 2 and 3, with EDI and Legion
