It's possible that it uses an entirely designed, maths-based, deterministic algorithm in order to keep its feet. It's also possible that it uses a trained neural net with some kind of neurotransmitter simulation. The one would suggest that it's entirely machine-like, a marvellously complex clockwork thing. The other would begin to blend the lines between machine and living, feeling, organism.

Either way, I felt the same thing. I felt sorry for it, and angry at the guy who kicked it.
