Not sure if this is a good or bad thing. As we become a more web dependent society, we have more information available to us than ever before imaginable, yet we suffer from an impressive lack of intimacy among real people. As more children grow up connected to the internet, they also separate themselves from the real people around them. Not sure the solution to this problem lies anywhere the web can touch.

You are right David, the AI is very “clever” these days. But..
In my opinion there is still a big gap between the human intelligence and what machine can produce.
Even if it’s a giants like Google or Yahoo

That’s “lo and behold”. The “lo” is a contraction of “look”.
