The MIT Press, 1998. Paperback. Used: Acceptable. Paperback - 1997 - good condition, small corner crease back cover - - . 0-262-69211-2. Isbn 0262692112. If you loved "2001: A Space Odyssey," you'll be delighted by this book that asks "How realistic was HAL?" Contributions by various scientists include essays on supercomputer design with regard to speech synthesis, common sense reasoning, emotions, lip reading and even playing chess. As the authors explore what is science fantasy and what is technological fact, they also look at how HAL influenced technological development in the past 30 years. The final chapter, called "When HAL Kills, Who's to Blame?" deals with the ethical aspects of building intelligent machines. Stork has assembled a beautiful package of essays on just how close computers have come to Clarke's vision over the last three decades.

I became operational... in Urbana, Illinois, on January 12, 1997. Inspired by HAL's self-proclaimed birth date, HAL's Legacy reflects upon sc ience fiction's most famous computer and explores the relationship between science fantasy and technological fact. The informative, nontechnical chapt ers written especially for this book describe many of the areas of computer science critical to the design of intelligent machines, discuss whether sc ientists in the 1960s were accurate about the prospects for advancement in their fields, and look at how HAL has influenced scientific research. Contributions by leading scientists look at the technologies that would be critical if we were, as Arthur Clarke and Stanley Kubrick imagined thirty years ago, to try and build HAL in 1997: supercomputers, fault-tolerance and reliability, planning, artificial…
