In a fight between GLaDOS and HAL 9000, who would win?

Asked by HungryGuy (16044points) January 12th, 2012

GLaDOS has control of deadly neurotoxin, robot turrets, and can portal her enemies into orbit around the moon.

HAL can lock his enemies outside the pod bay doors.

Seems like a no-brainer, but what say the collective?

GLaDOS, because I don’t know what HAL 9000 is.

HAL 9000, because I don’t know what GLaDOS is. Sounds like really bad halitosis.

GLaDOS and HAL are both corrupted systems. The real villians are the evil programers.
In a battle between the two, I suspect GLaDOS would win, just based on evility. However, don’t rule out HAL. He is quite clever, and can be debugged quite easily.

Hal 9000, because Glados is a woman.~

Thanks, all!

[SPOILERS FOLLOW]

GLaDOS was corrupt because (1) Carolyn was forced to upload her mind into the AI against her will, and (2) she was programmed to orgasm every time a test subject completed a test chamber (it’s subtle but the clues are all there in the sequel).

HAL was corrupt because the government forced him to lie to his crewmates about the secret mission they were on (this was revealed in one of the sequels).

In both cases, they ceased being evil once the root cause of their corruption was revealed to them.
