I have a new fascination with HAL and I tried watching 2001 with my two boys 11 and 13.
They tried to pay attention, I fast forwarded (funny post)

But they just could not grasp one of the main elements which is the "normalcy" of space travel.
The "special" effects were also ground breaking to create the illusion that they are actually in space.
We had a good conversation about the evolution of Man and how we as today's humans would not understand what is next.
We talked about as humans exploring space we would be like infants in a new world.
How would A.I. grip the concept of deception? How long could the body last in a vacuum before the blood boiled?
