List of voters for the quote

Ralph Quist: The X1000 is a masterpiece. Imagine a microchip sophisticated enough to control the guidance systems of ballistic missiles. Imagine it can be used to instantly upgrade any system that it's plugged into, like a smart drug for machines. Then imagine it can learn. Irwin Wayfair: [nervously] Wh-What are you talking about, artificial intelligence? Ralph Quist: No. Actual intelligence. It's no wonder those philistines at the Pentagon didn't appreciate it. One little flaw, and they scrap the whole project. Irwin Wayfair: Ah-ha. So, there is a flaw in the chips. Ralph Quist: Well... they're a little sensitive to EMP. Irwin Wayfair: EMP? Electromagnetic pulse? Ralph Quist: Yeah, the kind generated by the detonation of a nuclear device? I doubt even the toy industry has become quite that competitive. They said adequate shielding wasn't cost-effective. [scoffs] Did the Medicis ever tell Michelangelo "Sorry, Mike, but marble's not really cost-effective. Here's a bag of cement."? I think not! [sneezes] Irwin Wayfair: Gesundheit. Ralph Quist: Thank you. Larry Benson: Look, there really shouldn't be any problem, right? Just because the chips can learn. Ralph Quist: Am I not being clear? They learn within the boundaries of their primary programming. Whatever the core programming, the X1000 enhances it from within. So if you've got a problem, it's in your software.
