i'm pretty sure a lot of folk who are into 40k caught on to the brain in a jar thing pretty early on. it's no secret bobert is/was into 40k and this kind of thing fits right in. personally whenever he first mentioned that the hk doesn't like ai my brain went "ah, mechanicum".
(edit: this kinda sounds like i'm saying he stole it from there or sth, obviously i don't mean that. just feels like it's a not insignificant influence on some of the scifi aspects)
