Siri, can you hear me now?
Earlier this year IBM's Watson 'smart' supercomputer used natural language principles to beat human champions at Jeopardy. Today, Siri, the intelligent agent on the Apple iPhone-4s, answers users' ad hoc questions about almost anything in natural, conversational English. While those systems get the glory, there's a mass of smart systems already at work in virtually every electronics sector: automotive, industrial, communications, computing, transportation, energy, medical and personal health maintenance.
In our exclusive cover story, EE Times technology editor Colin Johnson reports on today's smart systems that can intuitively handle tasks that until now have been impossible to automate in real-time.
