Watched a interesting TED video the other day which showed how data was driving everything from stocks to amazon.com pricing on out of print books. Algorithms today run the world and we are installing dedicated trunk lines of fiber optics for nothing but this data. Rather scary on the one hand, but the ability to process that higher level thought process at that speed is inspiring. One day in my life time it is very likely that a AI will in fact respond in a human like way, based upon an algorithm that determined how to move stocks around.
