We have a clip.

So let's take a quick listen from Stanley Kubik's 2001, a space odyssey.

Open the pod bay doors, Hal.

I'm sorry, Dave.

I'm afraid I can't do that.

What's the problem?

I think you know what the problem is just as well as I do.

What are you talking about, Hal?

This mission is too important for me to allow you to jeopardize it.

I don't know what you're talking about, Hal.

I know that you and Frank were planning to disconnect me.

And I'm afraid that's something I cannot allow to happen.

Dave, although you took very thorough precautions in the part against my hearing you, I could see your lips move.

Without your space helmet, Dave, you're going to find that rather difficult.

Hal, I won't argue with you anymore.

Open the doors.

Dave, this conversation can serve no purpose anymore.

Goodbye.

Yeah, it's like actually in the context of all of this conversation around artificial intelligence and everything we're obsessed with these days.

To hear a conversation like that from 1968 is just, it's kind of mind-blowing.
