Whew! Okay, after a very late night writing session, the article is complete and off to the editor.
I wish I could have fit in all the fabulous AIs mentioned here. I did manage to include Mycroft, Data, Terminator, Asimov's Bicentennial Man, Robert J. Sawyer's www:wake books, Tik-Tok from the land of Oz, and a few others. Not bad for 2000 words, but really, the topic is deserving of a far more extensive treatment.
Ah well. Next decade, perhaps.
