Data's Design

  • A series of TNG clips that show how Data's built, how he functions, etc. with, of course, a bit humor thrown in. I might have gotten carried away with it and made it a little long. But, if you're a Data fan, hopefully you'll like it.
    I am in no way affiliated with the Star Trek franchise. I'm just a fan. This video was created for entertainment.

    • @treschlet
      @treschlet 3 года назад +17

      The more you think about it the more it makes sense. You get sensory inputs, you become familiar with them, then you anticipate them. Being able to anticipate them makes your life easier, because less processing is required to do the same task, or to exchange ideas. Then when they are gone, those anticipations misfire. You anticipate something that is not there, which means you are now applying mental energy on something that doesn't exists, which is both wasteful and draws your attention to the fact that you now must go back to doing more work to interact with different people who you are less familiar with. If you are built to constantly find more efficient ways to go about your life (and humans certainly are) this just comes across as a negative outcome. Depending on how your circuits work, that negative outcome might feel like a personal failure, or an offensive force from the outside world. When a friend isn't present, Data might literally feel like he did something wrong, or that he has been attacked or otherwise prevented from succeeding in his task. Analytically he probably knows that he did something wrong, but must still deal with the cognative dissonance of having done nothing wrong, knowing no one else did anything wrong, and feeling both hurt, and like a failure. How is that any different than what we feel?

      Obsidiron Pumicia, actually it does. Look at hot air balloons. Although I'm no where near an aeronautical engineer, I do know that when I flight aircraft wings are designed for air to flow over and under which allows not only lift in the aircraft, but also, the wings being the least sturdy of the body their design also allows the air to lift the wings giving added support so as to not have them rip away from the body. Like I said I'm no engineer. How ever I did serve in the Air Force and was around quite a few aircraft and was able to speak with many if the pilots. But air can be used for structural support.

      @@George040270 Star trek TNG was shot on 35mm film when digital cameras were not a thing and tape recorded shows really lacked definition, as such the film shot shows can be re-scanned at higher resolutions than even intended for telivision and you can see some details the original creaters never knew would be possible. It's why you don't see reruns of shows like home improvement or saved by the bell. Unfortunately it also meant that it was MUCH more expensive to burn film in multiple tapes as film is extrodinarily expensive not just to shoot, but develop and process so shows like star trek had to work with what they got. Johonothan frakes got the nickname in his directing history of the show as "two takes frakes". A LOT of great performances were lost over the years because actors would practice a scene on set a few times well before the cameras ever started to roll in that era.

He tries persistently yet simply cannot cultivate any genuine artistic or creative talents. He fails to understand the most basic human psychology, instincts, interactions, and intuitions.

      Garek would both be impressed and view it as 'challenge accepted' to try pulling a fast one on Data.
      And he'd be able to pull it too. Not by any means of super advanced spy voodoo or espionage, but a basic understanding of what data is as opposed to what he wants to be. Even with emotion he is still ultimately an android so would be an outsider looking in, albeit one with twenty or mroe users of experiance at that point to draw on.

    Fun fact: Data's storage capacity is almost 91 petabytes. You'd need about 4500 of the world's largest commercial HDDs (rated at 20 TB as of December 2020) to match it. His computational speed is more modest by comparison. He can push 60 TerraFLOPs which is weaker than, for example, an AMD Ryzen 3600, which is rated at 91 TFLOPs. Our processing power has literally surpassed Star Trek.

      Besides which, quantum computing will make the entire idea of memory limitation obsolete. The capacity of the human brain may be functionally infinite if Penrose's quantum brain hypothesis turns out to be correct, since multiple palimpsests of data can be stored on top of each other in a single probability wave. An electronic qubit will play the same role as the proteins lining the microtubules in the neurons of the brain, storing data as a standing wave in a state of quantum superposition.

      Actually we cannot make that conclusion. Data said linear computation speed, not parallel. Therefore in computing terms, this means a single core of a processor. The current i7-13700k processor's single core unit is less than 100 billion operations per second. Only through parallel and vectorized processing are we able to uncork modern day high performance computing. Data mentioned 60 trillion linear operations per second. We are nowhere close to that and with our current understanding of computing we will not achieve this level unless there is a fundamental shift in computing technology to something we do not yet have around.
