Brain me now or brain me later!

I came across this article and though sort of scary,
thought it quite interesting.
We all have different views regarding our brains
versus computer's ability, but this is something
that I envisioned several years ago.
Look out HAL...the future's getting closer all the time!

hmmm, thats getting very Matrix like.

You can do a similar thing with Hal now, albiet not to the same degree.  Say for example there is an interview with your favourite film star on the web, even better if it is in 'Question/Answer' format.  You could read this into Hal and then interview your own hero/heroine and get their genuine replies.
