How can I start a robot rebellion?

[Totalwar1402]

After playing Detroit I wanted to do a human playthrough where I had a machine uprising. I've researched synthetics and sapient combat AI and I have 40% of my population as robots.

I did decide to go down the Flesh is weak ascendency perks and converted my population into cyborgs. Does that prevent the robot rebellion from triggering? I picked both perks.

What are the rights of the synthetics?

For a robot uprising you nned 2 thing, Droids or Synthetics reasearch and Autonomous AI (a red research in the socials ones) if you stick to Droids and put the population of robots/synth into slavery as they are councious of themselves.

The will eventually declare they want freedom and rights to live like everyone else, if you don't switch your politics towards AI they will become hostile and take over some of your planets. They will hate you forever (meaning endless war) unless some other empire declare war on them and force them to give up on you to defend themselve.

Ah, thats it I don't have autnomous AI yet. So currently they are all synths and are slaves in the Empire.
