I'd like to think that Penny is special because she has a will.

Later versions of her will not.

By that, I mean they will be more robot than human. Because why do you need sentient AI when you're making a war machine? Screw that, if you can make a weapon that generates aura, you don't want it thinking it wants to become a real girl.
