As we all know, Star Trek not only has a history of repeating itself, but also a history of touching on themes of human rights, equality, and the laws that uphold them. L+L look at two episodes that focus specifically on the rights of AI characters, TNG’s “Measure of a Man†and VOY’s “Author, Authorâ€. They find some similarities and a LOT of differences. Does “Measure of a Man†hold up? (Spoiler: of course it does). Did the EMH’s holonovel trial change anything for the Mark Ones? (Spoiler: maybe not?). Is it even fair to compare any episode of TV to “Measure of a Manâ€?
