OH, to your reply about ST:TNG, there was the ep where Moriarty the hologram developed a consciousness too! They had no idea what to do with him.

That he couls learn from hia miatakes and reproduce (lal). .. the fact that he kept a holo-recording of tasha had something to do with it too? It's been a while.

STV had an ep where the Doctor had to prove his sentience too. http://en.memory-alpha.org/wiki/Author,_Author_%28episode%29
The Doctor too! of course! I love that Star Trek was discussing the sentience of AI's, Data had a similar thing going right?
And then remember the iconic scene in TSCC where Cameron starts dancing and Sarah's voice over says that once AIs start to appreciate art, then they become like humans too. The look on Derek's face in that scene...
