2024-09-03 17:49:02 +0000 UTCSoong told Data that he would grieve in his own way. He knew that Data is capable of developing emotions in a subconscious way as an emergent property of sentience. Lal didn't have a Soong emotion chip, but developed them quickly as an emergent property of a cascade failure. The chip was just am instant shortcut to fully developed emotions. Or you could think of the Soong emotion chip as a hardware accelerator, RTX for emotion

2024-08-31 18:00:13 +0000 UTCIn S1, It was Riker who tried to make Data into a human when he still had Q powers but Data refused, saying he wanted to find his own way. In s3, Q made him laugh because he thought making Data a human would be a curse. Similar subject matters so easy to confuse them.
THE LORE!!!

It's the best part of "emotionless" Data, the way he kinda acquires his own version of humanity from his Enterprise through osmosis.

2024-08-30 16:26:14 +0000 UTCI hope, near the end of the TNG journey that you guys or your Mods get to go back through your video comments on “things we’d love to see” and ruminate on how many you predicted, and which turned out better than expected.

2024-08-30 16:23:07 +0000 UTCI think it would be horrifying. People have emotions that make us want to react in an emotional way but most people can stop themselves for over reacting. A machine does not have that. If a machine makes a decision it will react. Now, machines behave based on logic and information. People live in the "gray" where we must make a yes or no decision but we know it is all about degree. Machines are 1 or 0 not gray.

2024-08-30 15:39:37 +0000 UTCI think Data already has emotions. His sense of humanity has grown beyond even his own expectations. That's pure emotional growth.
