I think that they are very similar, and I would not be surprised if the producers of Star Trek did model Data on Olivaw.
Both are human like, logical, and flawed in that their programming in that they are unable to understand the nuances of human behavior.
Source(s):
Seen all the Star Trek stuff and read all the books with Olivaw
