I don't believe that's a good analogy unless Cortana is renamed "Bing", because then the user expectation of saying "OK Bing" has a more clear intent about using Bing search engine only.

So, what is this? A rambling of everything around you portrayed in a negative light; I'm sure it's a formula that could work in a about any other city or any other job. Heck, I was sure at the end of it she would tell us she joi

Every famous person is an archetype, even when they are alive. For example most people think about Linus as a genius who created Linux rather than the guy who use childish insults on mailing lists. They arent any less human, it's just

Hey, I'm "broken" too but my addiction involves alcohol and bad girls, at least you are addicted to something sane and educational. And you work at Google, that's awesome.

All you have to do is get access to that DB and then you have A1 blackmail material, ready to bury any enemy of yours, specially in America, specially if they have/deal-with children.

It's certainly an important issue but it has nothing to do with the matter at hand, but with labour laws and their enforcement. Any employee can be abused if they have no means of protection.

The self-repair and self-replicate come at a very hard cost, in the sense that it requires food, water and oxygen, while machines only need electricity. And the replication is actually incomplete in the sense that it starts in a very small

Not really, the brain to operate also needs all the other systems. Just as a CPU needs all the other parts to function. And including the manufacturing equipment is just as false, in the sense that you would have to include his mother (as b

Humans try so hard to believe consciousnesse is boolean, like "humans have it" and "every other living thing does not" is almost funny. I have news for nerds,, conciseness is a float, imprecition and all. So cannibalism
