    The latest version of Dirk Gently has an episode where the Pentagon is desperately searching for the most powerful computer program on Earth.

    You type in your conclusion, say “I want to invade Switzerland” and the program will search the entire interwebs to come up with a logical, fact based analysis that explains why it’s a reasonable thing to do.

        The one I mentioned is a 2010 series from the BBC I just saw on BritBox streaming service.

        I saw that one after I saw the 2016 version with Elijah Wood.

        So the older version was ‘new’ to me.

        Sorry for any confusion.

        It is mentioned on the second season of the Netflix one, but it is more relevant in the books, and the UK version AFAIK.
