  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] QuirkyNate I wonder if we'll eventually have AI like Cortana? That would be pretty neat as long as it doesn't try to kill us.[/quote] Cortana is supposedly based on a real, living brain. Supposedly if one could re-create or even simulate a complete brain you would have a "living", thinking, thing. Of course the only way to know this is to try it.

  • I'm not super impressed. It is still no match for the human brain, and honestly, I cannot see it ever attaining that level of self-sufficiency.
