    predominance of HAL, and the awe that he inspires in his merely human crew (and audience!) is of a piece with that worship of machinery that we see throughout 2001” (Pfluger). Hal achieves almost divine status among the crewmembers on the mission, as he is shown to be superior to all of the other human members of the crew. His superiority is used to confirm all the fears of Clarke’s contemporary readers, and, like Rama, portray humanity as inferior to technology. Clarke furthers his…
