The Doctor would absolutely agree. He was intended to be a short-term assistant when a doctor wasn’t available, and he was personally affronted when he discovered that he wouldn’t be replaced by a human in any reasonable amount of time.
Correct, until he was on for awhile. Then, he started to want to live and not be turned off when someone left. Hell he even married a human at the end of the day. Commanded starships. Fought the Borg.
He totally changed his mind after he found the taste for culture and “modifying” his program so he would stick his holo D in folks.
See what sex does? Can’t even stop machines from turning themselves off lmao
Emergent behavior, for sure. I think the fact that there aren’t a bunch of sentient holograms in the Lower Decks/Picard timeline suggest that it was situational, though.
Cries in “The Doctor” from Voyager.
