Sorry, but you're talking to a physician and an engineer (I was an overachiever in my spare time). Linear motion is relative, but angular motion is an entirely different matter. To put it in relativistic terms (i.e. any frame of reference is as good as any other), nothing can be conceived of as being at rest if its is rotating - you can't expect the entire universe to be spinning while you are stationary. The internal ear has exquisitely sensitive hair cells in the semicircular canals that are designed to detect angular mation in 3 dimensions (the 3 canals are perpendicular to each other - I couldn't have designed a better sensor myself). Unfortunately, there is substantial crossover between the associated sensory nuclei and the vagus nerve, which stimulates the gut. Hence, excessive motion causes nausea and vomiting.
At least the AI's should be immune to the effects of rotation. ;-)
