    Feels like this version of Data would not be riding the bridge, he’d be in a storage closet with other useless and obsolete technology.

    Not accurate. Data would keep claiming it to be a Klingon Bird of Prey.

      Hell if it got you talking long enough, he might offer to help write you suicide note and get you some rope.

    My childhood self to my adult self: “So you’re saying there are going to be artificial intelligences in my lifetime? Wow! That’s so cool, are they going to be all smart and logical like Data? And can do everything a person can do but better?”

    “More like emotionally unbalanced, habitual liars who rarely behave as they’re told, and cannot do basic tasks or even analyze a spreadsheet without getting distracted and trying to start a cult, but they really love to make weird art and bad writing. Nobody knows how they work, but people are trying to put them in charge of everything.”

    “oh.”

    https://www.startrek.com/news/forgotten-trek-creating-the-romulan-bird-of-prey

    “After filming, the Bird of Prey model disappeared, which may account for the Romulans showing up in Klingon D7 cruisers in the third-season episode “The Enterprise Incident.””

    Rumor has it that the OG model was destroyed by the creator as part of a union dispute.

    https://scifi.stackexchange.com/questions/127159/was-the-use-of-klingon-ships-by-romulans-ever-given-an-off-screen-explanation#127170

    "The original model Bird-of-Prey was destroyed by the model maker, Wah Ming Chang.

    Herb Solow and Robert Justman’s book Star Trek: The Inside Story explains that a union grievance had been filed for a non-union contractor selling props to the production. After the one appearance was filmed, the model was returned to Chang without him being paid or receiving credit for his work and he destroyed the model himself."

      If you are referring to the actor, I do not believe so.

    I like how Riker is sitting. I think it qualifies as manspreading.

      You would be wrong in this case. It’s a medical condition and thus excluded from its general category.

    Hah. Yes, I assume training in beliefs that sponsored products are great is in AI’s future.

    That’s a fun one to unpack with the advent of sentience — fits right in with Murderbot’s “the xyz training modules they gave us are crap” though.

    … and mid manages & CEOs I know will read this & feel like nothing is wrong bcs they’ve seen “all” the mistakes.

    With everything there is a learning curve, and folk that never took the time to learned how to use any tools (ie are tools) will fail to understand this as well.
