They also use a variant on this as an in-universe reason why genetic engineering of humans isn’t done: people modified for increased intelligence tend to turn out evil, the way that Khan did. They haven’t solved the biological enhanced intelligence alignment problem either.
Is it still as reassuring when you consider that despite knowing this, they still routinely run their computers at a level of capability that’s just a few inches short of doing a treacherous turn? ;)
Sort of reassuring that they know they haven’t solved the Alignment problem I guess. :P
