Was Marvin named after Marvin Minsky?

This is obviously a Hitchhiker's reference. Minsky was cool, but no match for the Paranoid Android.

Ah, Marvin the Paranoid Android, thank you.

I'd bet that Adams got that from Radiohead when he was tripping in the future

I am not sure Minksy was cool if cool was hanging out with Jeffrey Epstein.
