Guess what; Arthur C. Clarke predicted almost ALL of Apple's products in the 50's! |

Only reason this wasn't out sooner is that voice software is a pain in the arse due to the fact almost no one sounds like anyone else.
I used a voice software on windows 95, only thing was you had say it 100% the same every damn time. |

Siri is nowhere near the level in this video. Also, how the hell were they 18 days off? Where in the video does it say anything about a date that's 18 days off? Total load of stink. |

You can do all of this. Just be on webcam with some dude that's got his own laptop and is running remote desktop on yours. |

I found this video strangely comforting... I think it's the 80's wash it has and the fact that I was raised by tv. It was like seeing my nanny :) |

Why did people always assume we wanted tools represented by some talking character? Bill Nye here, the Windows search dog, the annoying Office paperclip - I don't know anybody who thought this was a good idea. |

I always feel a little bad when the description ends up taking away from the vid/picture rather than adding to it. The clip was pretty cool on its own, but the misleading description just made me feel a little miffed instead. :'( |

It's not a matter of "prediction." People have fantasized about various manifestations of advanced technology for a long time; we've just been waiting for that technology to catch up with imagination. I could sit here and fantasize about any number of technological advancements, I wouldn't be predicting, per se, just expressing wishful thinking or ideas based on plausibility. |

I was conned into watching this video when it started out at 4 stars. What a crock. I see it's fallen to 2 stars which sounds about right. |

Bah, Star Trek predicted iPads and cell phones long before 1987. Roddenberry was the man. |

"
what's Siri?"
the AI in the iPhone 4s.
And it's nowhere near this advanced. |
