Artificial Intelligence is not yet HAL from the 2001: The Space Odyssey…but we are getting awfully close. Sure enough, one day it could be as similar to the sci-fi potboilers being churned out by Hollywood.

Does anyone remember a commercial that said, “The future is now”? Seems like an odd thing to say, especially if you have any grasp of physics. Yet, the statement is not entirely without merit. As far as technology goes, the future is, indeed, now. What is being created and tested in research and development labs [...]

The future, this endless stretch of time ahead of us that we won’t grasp until it has passed us. Where will you be in a year from now or in 5, 10, 20 or 50 years? What will you do, what will you look like, what will you think about the past? There is no [...]
