Question one has to consider, as technologies advan ces, and emotion becomes more lenient on the side of humanizing things that cannot stand on their own, sort of speak. In the movie, to my attention it was made clear that humans and robot were very similar to the point that one had to run a test on the machine to determine that it was not human. Thus leading to the fact that the emotional attachment to the machine will seem more acceptable in the relevance that one does not know who or what it is being emotionally attached to.
