Except that sadly, the only machines that will read it will have to be centralised in the hands of cloud providers in order to provide the funding and power needed to run them. One of the great things about the semantic web, to me, was always that you could process it on a cheap VPS or your own desktop, creating new systems with little or no knowledge of math or machine learning. (I know projects that do this today.) That's not going to happen for a long time with natural language processing.
