Losing faith in technology...

So, after reading a shitload of Popular Science at work lately, I've gotten really excited about humanity's progress toward a world with kick-ass A.I. robots, and stuff like that. But then tonight I went into Walgreens to get E some pre-cold medicine (called "Airborn") and saw a game called 20Q. Basically 20 Questions, only in little, electronic game form. It asked me 20 questions, and although what I was thinking of was a BANANA, it guessed "Is it a fart?". Sigh.... Looks like we've got a long way to until robots will clean our houses, raise our children, and do everything... but cry.
