(Anonymous) 2012-06-30 06:07 pm (UTC)(link)Uhh, not really. In fact I'd say that this particular 'reveal' about Obadiah would just add one more level to the already textual manipulative and heavily implied subtly abusive relationship. While JARVIS being revealed to be 'sentient' puts a whole new spin on a LOT of things - not least Tony's genius (could go either way), Tony's relationship with him (is it slavery? Does he know about the sentience or not?), Fury shutting JARVIS down becomes akin to attempted murder rather than disabling a security system, JARVIS not taking any action when Stane paralyzes and de-arcs Tony becomes worthy of scrutiny (if he's sentient why didn't he take any action on his own?) and so on and so forth.
I'm an engineer, and I've worked with both artificial speech systems and robotics, and I'd damn well need more 'proof' before JARVIS's sentience became any apparent or 'true' or anything more than fanon. I'd be glad to see any meta on this, not actually asking to see 'everything that's been said on the subject'. I get you're pretty attached to that headcanon and that's okay. But that doesn't make it more than headcanon. But I think if you really feel so strongly that "perfectly reasonable and logical ... to assume Jarvis is sentient given all the factors in the movies" then it's not untenable to ask you to be able to give a few of all these factors and your thoughts for thinking so. *shrugs*
