To be fair, HAL only went haywire after being ordered to lie to the crew.

Always laugh at the name as it was obvious why it was HAL - take each letter and go back in the alphabet and

It seems to me that, if we cannot even define our own intelligence, that designing machine-learning programs might not be a good idea. If we cannot even project the possible outcomes, should we pull the trigger?

I'm not worried about Watson, or Deep Blue, etc. Those are algorithmic rather than thoughtful. What happens when you produce software that can put two and two together, metaphorically? What happens when AI learns to lie?

Intelligence comes in so many frameworks, as you point out, that we cannot even understand the various intelligent species which populate our globe naturally. Is there really a need to create an artificial intelligence that we may not understand? Shit, our own intelligence seems to be screwing this world up six ways to Sunday.

I think this is certainly a point where we should go slow.

That was actually coincidence - Stanley and Clarke both stated that had they known at the time, they would have changed HAL's name.

Zapp Brannigan knew the way to defeat such killbots: just throw wave after wave of your own men at them until the killbots reach their preset kill limit and shut down.
