Siri is fun to play with – ask her what the meaning of life is sometime – but I am still not sure she offers real, usable information that a quick internet search wouldn’t give me, and I wouldn’t have to repeat three times. However, people like Tim Berners-Lee dream of a time when you could ask inocuious questions like where to take your spouse for dinner and receive a response based on natural language processing and what I call insight.

Tonight I was doing laundry while my husband was watching television in the other room. I am used to hearing words like military, marcupial, or wooly mammoth coming from his preferred viewing channels — History, Discovery, or PBS. It took me a few minutes to realize what I was hearing sounded way too familiar to my world. Words like artificial intelligence, machine learning, and semantic technology came wafting through the house.
