[Vision2020] Say What?

[Paul Rumelhart]

"Wouldn't surprise me.  Kurzwell is a visionary and is very knowledgeable about where the AI technology is today and can extrapolate where it 
will be in the future.  It will be able to quickly process and 
comprehend decades of viz2020 archive posts."

Which leads nicely into the topic of whether or not an AI Google should have rights.  I would consider having to comprehend decades of viz2020 archive posts to be a cruel and unusual punishment for a sentient machine.

With context:

Kurzweil believes that Google will soon "know the answer to your 
question before you have asked it. It will have read every email you've 
ever written, every document, every idle thought you've ever tapped into
 a search-engine box. It will know you better than your intimate partner
 does. Better, perhaps, than even yourself."

If you want to be like the folks on the hill."
