Through a selection of classic episodes, we examine how Star Trek has explored questions of AI consciousness, identity and the rights of artificial beings. From Data’s struggle to be recognised as a sentient individual to the Doctor’s evolution from medical program to fully realised personality, these stories reveal why Star Trek remains one of the most thoughtful explorations of artificial intelligence in science fiction.
