Trek still remembers V'ger.  Star Trek the Motion Picture.  AI's in Trek
have not been the best for The Federation really.  Data is an anomoly
because it 'works' and it works in a way the federation likes. It's not
looking for world domination or to make The Federation into something it's
not.  But thats just the way I see it
