I'm not writing a thesis on David just to gain your permission to speak. I might be a timid, kindly, innocent new user, but I'm not a cuck. Stop being so mean. It's not nice.
Ask me specific questions.

Maybe the answer you're looking for is that he was made by, and programmed to serve, an inferior species that he held in contempt, so he wanted to meet their creator so he might better understand his own existence.
Like I said before. Stereotypical evil Droid. That concept of meeting the maker, self exploration, thoughts about identity and resenting humanity has been done to death. It was done best in Ex Machina tbh.
David is a great character with incredible depth and that's just a small part of who David was. It barely scratches the surface of his character's function in the story.
He was shallow and not really fleshed out that well. He was generic. -

She was not evil. She was a woman.
For most of Ex Machina both the audience and the computer nerd are wondering if she's sentient. By the end, we realize she's not just alive, but she's also a female. The inventor hadn't just created life, he'd created gendered life, and she used her gender and all its advantages to emancioate herself. That's why, at the end of the movie, we see her in public, harming nobody. She wasn't malevolent, she wasn't evil, she was just doing what she needed to do to remove herself from an abusive, oppressive relationship.
He was shallow and not really fleshed out that well.
If that's where we're starting from, I don't have the energy to continue. You're welcome to your opinion, but don't complain when people treat you with contempt. You're clearly short on smarts.

She was evil. She was supposed to serve. She manipulated the humans and the other droids like herself and killed her maker. It wasn't even justified murder either.
The inventor hadn't just created life, he'd created gendered life, and she used her gender and all its advantages to emancioate herself.
At what point are human women murdering men because they felt trapped into a relationship???? How is murder part of being a woman??
That's why, at the end of the movie, we see her in public, harming nobody. She wasn't malevolent, she wasn't evil, she was just doing what she needed to do to remove herself from an abusive, oppressive relationship.
Well not ****ing yet cuz she wasn't interacting with other humans. But we know how she acts when around other humans. She is dangerous. She didn't deserve to be freed. She wasn't abused either. She wasn't human either. Yes she was able to think and make decisions. The inventor was wrong though. How could you not see that?
