cmgoodin Posted August 18, 2014 Report Share Posted August 18, 2014 I was looking around the You Tube and found one of my favorite old programs. Connections with James Burke. In the below linked episode he outlines a personal assistant on his MAC laptop while in India and it bears an uncanny resemblance to Siri or Google Plus. This show was produced in 1997 almost a decade before the iPhone was announced. So let's hope Apple didn't notice this video when they were filing patent applications for Siri. The pertinent part starts about 2 minutes in. And if you haven't seen the rest of the series it is a fascinating look at the various connections between historical events and scientific discovery. It had 3 series all of them amazing. ----Courtney http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=91XWKv5UuCM&feature=player_detailpage&list=PLN4k4qrIgJwQx0qC8iU2gsAfB0dsyEhpe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
