I was always on HAL's side

I think HAL is a perfect case of what happens when people become too reliant on technology and don't account for their flaws.If it ever came down to it, I'd side with my human colleagues, I mean the robot could be replaced anytime.

>can you sympathy with Hal and actually trust Hal or go with the crew and not trust Hal?
I would always sympathize with HAL, the question is would he sympathize with me

>>62988082
You're missing the point, HAL would've killed your ass no matter what.

The only reason the mission went to hell was because the crew members were too focused on not trusting hal to the point they were going to disconnect hal due to their extreme belief that hal was malfunctioning but truly the only thing hal did was pointed out that to allow the communication signal to fail so it can be pinpointed were the malfunctioning happened within the system and also they had backups to fix it anyway.

In short hal use of self defense was justified because he didn't do nothing wrong.

And kill that guy by sending him into space

>Hal was programmed to be completely honest to the crew members
>Hal also had to keep the real mission task a secret from them
>The only way to acheive both sides was too kill the whole crew so there was no one to lie too. That and he's an A.I. with no human sympathy

Yes you can understand what he was doing. But who in their right mind would side with him because of that?
