But Seriously: It really does seem to be in a beta stage (or what ever stage of development) and this kind of thing has a long way to go before becoming parallel to act like a biological brain.

Thank goodness! I thought I would grow up in the generation RIGHT BEFORE we become a hyper-advanced race, and die just before the flying car, robot servants future.

Sorry to tell you, but a flying car will be a terrible idea.

That's because it would take a shitload of fuel to do so, and also because crashes would be extreme.

We already have flying cars. But they turned out to be grossly impractical, far too costly and dreadfully unsafe to use in the hands of the mass commuter.

We also have robot servants already too. But they are still too expensive and are available only to special businesses and venues.

There is no market for either of them

We already knew flying cars would be awful, cause Ultralight aircraft are exactly the same. They are safer, but that is only because they are built specifically for flying. Ultralight aircraft are by far the most deadly type of aircraft there is, appart from drones…but they are unmanned, so no one gets killed unless it lands on someone. Funny thing is, I think people completely ignored that fact…

I hereby christen Amanda's Law: Given internet access any being will waste time looking at cats.

EDIT: It also recognized human faces and developed a bizarre obsession with spatulas and other kitchen appliances on a 30 degree angle.
Can we persuade Cheez to let us buy a few of these things and document their memes?

Should be Brennan's Law. More official.

And besides, we already have a sentient computer:
