- Legitimate intelligence and sentience on an artificially-produced, usually computational substrate
- As distinguished from virtual intelligence
- Space between VI and AI is vague and ill-defined, often requiring extended research and interaction to distinguish between highly advanced VI and newborn AI (DS9 Novel: The Long Mirage)
- Federation research into AI generally restricted for similar justifications as for genetic engineering bans
- Long-standing discomfort originating from artificially intelligent agents during World War III (ENT Novel: Live by the Code)
- General distaste at creating intelligent beings purely for the sake of creating them
- Various negative interactions with foreign and malign artificial intelligences throughout 22nd and 23rd century solidified this perception, only waning during the mid-24th century (TNG Novel: Immortal Coil)
