Line 38:
* [[Stanislaw Lem]]'s "constructors" (Mortal Engines ([[Mortal Engines|not that one]]), ''[[The Cyberiad]]'').
* The Dingbots from ''[[Girl Genius]]'' can create other Dingbots, but each successive generation is stupider and weaker. There are only about three originals ("Queenie Dingbot", "Prime A", and "Prime B") from which the best can be made directly.
* Similarly, in ''[[Gunnerkrigg Court]]'' the [[Golem|golemsgolem]]s and then robots continued manufacturing more of themselves after their creator's death. Because many of his [[Super Prototype|initial designs]] were beyond their understanding, subsequent generations were greatly simplified.
* Acibek in ''[[Dominic Deegan]]: Oracle For Hire'' created his replacement before his [[Heroic Sacrifice]].
* In ''[[Spacetrawler]]'', this is how the Mihrrgoots mastered [[Nanomachines|nanotechnology]].
