not going for every wotc official source, but rather going for the smaller list of published by wotc? that's too bad.

historically, yes there were. both as npc and as pcs. this is because the original campaign setting for D&D when it was first officially published included wrecked starships, robots, sentient AI computers, and more as a (small) part of the world in a certain location. as previously mentioned...
