I think the North No. 2 can accurately get what human beings think. He can exactly get what the blind pianist's mother inner feelings when the mother sat next to the blind pianist who was serious sick at that time. Human beings are not easily perfectly get what others think, which sometimes makes people confused about how others exactly think. If someone who attributes his or her life in negative ways, they always see people or things around them in negative ways. If people who look at things in positive ways, they might see people and things around them in more positive ways. We can not get what others think about us immediately like the North. No.2. I think even ourselves can not know why we think or perceive something as we are. If we do not exactly know what we think, how others will exactly know what we think or how we think. I think in our life sometimes something can not be easily explained by words or can not be accurately explained. I think sometimes we might not get what others think or feel, which is very normal. However, we need to try to forgive, trust and understand when we get confused about something or someone. I think pure forgiveness, trust and understanding are based on our uncertainty about the world and people. Even though we are confused, we learn to forgive, trust and understand. It really needs courage and determination to forgive, trust and understand the world unconditionally.
My discuss question:
Why do human beings can not exactly get others' feelings accurately like the robot. If we know exactly how others feel, what good or bad things will happen?

I think that it’s much harder for humans to understand each other because they are so wrapped up by their own thoughts and feelings. It also seemed easier for robots to understand humans because they had advantages that humans didn’t have. For instance, the robots in “Pluto,” specifically North No.2, are said to be programmed with data and information of humans they interact with so that the robots can serve them better. The said society is also designed so that it is illegal for robots to kill humans. In a place where robots are legally and socially required to be “nice” to humans, it only makes sense to have an accurate sense of humans’ feelings for their use, almost as a survival technique. Feelings also change quickly and each emotion has a variation of depth and intensity that makes it for other humans to detect. Without a full knowledge of the other person’s background and history, it’ll be hard and almost impossible to understand another person’s feelings in an accurate way. But I also imagine that it would be really complicated if you knew exactly what the other person was feeling, too. I think having a boundary like we do now (in terms of how much we know and don't know) is good and healthy for us.

Robots are created for and programmed to serve the humans with much data and information about humans as possible, thus it makes them much easier to detect and deduce humans' feelings. Though, in my personal opinion, at times, I don't think robots are all that accurate about humans because the information they have of us are probably a general and averaged (albeit detailed) dataset of the experiences and past of humans, how human beings should act and feel in certain situations, and what humans are in essence, but I think humans can be much more complicated than that. Humans can be so unpredictable sometimes that in certain situations, they can surprise, amaze, or frighten us. Sometimes even we don't know why we acted that certain way or why we felt that way. Humans are interesting that we can grasp other people's feelings accurately at times, but we can also be so off at other times. Humans are also programmed to be social animals, so that being able to understand someone's feelings enhances one's relationship with that person. But sometimes that may be a bad thing because humans don't like to be analyzed and don't want people to tell them what they're feeling because it's something personal that should never be out in the light.
