Funny, because Hal didn't had a bug. It did what it did interpreting the orders that humans gave it. Just unintended consequences.
Which is kinda the point about AI safety. We don't really know what we want, we sure as hell don't know how to formalize it, and we're lucky that we don't know how to create a real AI because otherwise it could surprise us in a very ugly way, just lawfully following the plan we gave it.
