"The web was supposed to evolve into semantically structured, linked, machine-readable data that would enable amazing opportunities. That never happened. (...) We also never achieved truly personal computing. Computers could've been personal knowledge bases, with structured semantic connections akin to HyperCard, that take advantage of the semantic web and open standards. (...) AI is not a triumph of elegant design, but a brute-force workaround."
