You know how in Star Trek: The Next Generation the crew was able to just ask their computer any question and get computed coherent results with accompanying graphs and suggested information?

Well now we have it too. Or closer than I thought we were going to get for at least another ten years or so.

But don’t take my word for it, I’ll let it speak for itself.

Computer, What is the weather in Durham, NC?

Computer, What was the weather in Richmond, VA on April 29, 1979?

Computer, Compare MSFT and Apple (Note I didn’t have to give it AAPL for Apple’s stock.)

Computer, Compare Titanium and Platinum

Computer, Where is Mars?

Computer, What are synonyms for the word puzzle?

Computer, Hurricane Andrew

Computer, What is the velocity of an unladen swallow?

Computer, Ohm’s Law

And that’s even getting into its crazy awesome mathematical capabilities.

f(n)=f(n-1)+f(n-2), f(1)=1, f(2)=2

Have fun, and check our their gallery of examples.
