...and one of the latest generation
of the HAL-9000 computers.
For he was the latest result
in machine intelligence.
The HAL-9000 computer
which can reproduce...
...though some experts still
prefer to use the word "mimic"...
...most of the activities of the human
brain and with incalculably greater speed...
...and reliability.
You are the brain and central
nervous system of the ship.
The 9000 Series is the most
reliable computer ever made.
No 9000 computer has ever made a
mistake or distorted information.
...fool proof and incapable of error.
I enjoy working with people.
My mission responsibilities range over
the entire operation of the ship...
...so lam constantly occupied.
I am putting myself to
the fullest possible use...
...which is all, I think, that any
conscious entity can ever hope to do.
He's just like the
sixth member of the crew.
...really as just another person.
Do you believe that Hal
has genuine emotions?
Of course, he's programmed that way to
make it easier for us to talk to him.
The 9000 Series has a
perfect operational record.
Of course, he's right about the 9000
Series having a perfect operational record.
Unfortunately, that sounds a
little like famous last words.
There isn't a single aspect of ship
operation that's not under his control.
As far as I know, no 9000 computer
has ever been disconnected.
Well, no 9000 computer
has ever fouled up before.
I know I've made some very
poor decisions recently...
...but I can give you
my complete assurance...
...that my work will be back to normal.
I'm...
...afraid.
I am a HAL-9000 computer.
