In 5 to 20 years search engines will have a new feature,
contextual search. This will make them quite smart, for
instance if you wanted to search for "a man with a square
jaw and a scar under his eye", the engine will find all
pictures that fit. Or if you are searching for "Godel>s
Proof" it will find all sites that contain Godel>s proof,
not the myriad of sites that just mention the terms, or
if you are looking for an actual "art shop", the search
engine will find all the art shops for you, it may ask
if you want to include Amazon resellers.
1 year after contextual search is available, we will crack
artificial intelligence. Computers will talk and figure
things out. Within 5 years of that we will have driverless
cars, androids and intelligent talking house robots.
By 2040 smart computers will develop a cure for cancer and
a virus that will halt the aging process, immortality for those
who can afford it. By 2060 there will be natural feeling
bionic limbs, and bionic eyes for the blind.
The 21st century is just getting started, and it all begins
with contextual search.

You are quite misinformed: there is no intelligence at all in a search
engine. In 5 years, the whole R&D around intelligent search agents is
going to be recognized for what it is: a big bunch of rubbish, a waste
of some 50 years for humanity, the usual gain for the usual
speculators.
Nothing new under the sun: the new man is still not here (he>s heard
about us and has taken a detour to Andromeda).

Anythimg can crack Artificial Intelligence, since A.I. is nothing
but an idiot Artifical PROOF. As the morons from the University of
Idiot
have been told for over 30 years now. Which is why the brains doing
the reasreach
stopped using idiot keyboards altogether *40 years AGO*. And
staterted building
satellites and optical computers, robots, and laser conpression
systems.
If the idiots in "math" haven>t noticed after 40 years of
licking chemists assholes.

The search agents you and I can find on the 'net may be rubbish, but the
state of the art is quite a bit further along. Its also either
classified or being developed overses.
