For the love of god, why everyone are so missing the point? Is my writing so bad (don't hesitate to tell me, I'm French and I know that my English writing is terrible)? Who is speaking about Artificial Intelligence there? Not me, it's not my project at all, far from there. When I claim that computers would be able to "talk" to each others, of course it's not about a normal conversation as humans can do it. Computers will still speak only about what they know, about what they were programmed for. So please, forget this small metaphoric part of my text and try to go forward. :) Sincerely, Manuel Vila http://claimid.com/mvila Le 6 nov. 07 à 21:26, Alejandro Cabral a écrit : > I agree with your analysis Renato, though I am as excited as Manuel > is about thinking the web in ways we haven´t done so before.
