RE: [Semantic_Web] Re: web to semantic web : an automated approach

Ray Kurzweil's take on Stephen Wolfram's NKS is worth looking at.

The complexity of the web is of a higher order than that e.g. of quantum physics and string theory, because it deals with data and information, and not necessarily with the observable universe and the observers therein.

The semantic web goes beyond the web in terms of its order of complexity.

It will take many more years of hard pure and applied research in neurobiology, mathematics, physics, linguistics and related fields to come up with the interdisciplinary field of science to address the issues of the semantic web in a unified way.

But Wolfram|Alpha might just be the jolt required to stir up the applied mathematics research field to start looking into new areas of search, algorithms and formal systems to get to the next level.
