Star Trek M-5 computer and quotes (post #1000)

mjnc · Nov 21, 2011

I thought I'd do something special for post number 1000.
(guess I need to get a fat cigar) :major

This is one of my favorite passages from the original Star Trek series.
I made one correction.
Wish I could have found a video clip, but no luck there.

Star Trek: "The Ultimate Computer" - Spock and McCoy Banter

Dr. McCoy: Compassion. That's the one thing no machine ever had. Maybe it's the one thing that keeps men ahead of
them. Care to debate that, Spock?

Mr. Spock: No Doctor, I simply maintain that computers are more efficient than human beings, not better.

Dr. McCoy: But, tell me, which do you prefer to have around?

Mr. Spock: I presume your question is meant to offer me a choice between machines and human beings. And I believe I
have already answered that question.

Dr. McCoy: I was just trying to make conversation, Spock.

Mr. Spock: It would be most interesting to impress your memory engrams on an M-5 computer, Doctor. The resulting torrential
flood of illogic would be most entertaining.

Dr. McCoy: "We're all sorry for the other guy when he loses his job to a machine. When it comes to your job, that's different. And it always will be different."
