Artificial Intelligence in the form of an annoying British Kid.

And No, I don't mean Harry Potter. Peter Molyneux (I don't trust him by his name alone) and the people who brought you the X Box have created an AI motion controller system called Natal that takes the form of a little boy named Milo. Check out the Milo Movie. This may seem like a good idea... but I've seen the movies. I guess this guy doesn't watch a lot of Sci-Fi but I do. I've seen the movies where the AI gets mad and self aware and jealous etc. etc.

"Molyneux says Milo can recognize your face,
emotions and will interact with you
on a very deep level."

It's very cool technology and of course really, really creepy. "On a very deep level"? As if the creepy British kid wasn't bad enough. Next thing you know humans are on the extinction list and we're counting on Sarah Connor to save us all.
