Isaac was a smart guy. He appreciated that minority-carrier devices, p-channel things, are big and slow, so his robots had positronic
brains.

It refers to a massively parallel quantum computer consisting of qubits >encoded in a positronium hydride lattice, embedded in a supercooled
yttrium iron garnet Bose-Einstein condensate substrate.
Jeez! Don't they teach the kids anything these days

With the AI fad, people are considering the implications of falling in
love with a humanoid robot.
I don't recall if Asimov considered that. I haven't read the I Robot
books in a long time.

Yes, it can be titrated with Olpalomine using an indicator such as e-nuphizin-nuph or Thatizol.
Bill would know more, he's a Chemist.

I have a collection of Asimov's robot stories titled "The Complete
Robot" plus other volumes of his work. Haven't read them in a long time
so I'm hazy about specifics. I do remember that there are instances
where a human had romantic feelings towards a robot.
