I attempted this 10+ years ago in 1999 with my 450 Mhz computer running Win 98. It did work, but was really slow and wasn't smart enough to fix basic mistakes.
I think Apple should work with IBM to develop Watson into a AI interface/secretary/researcher... Put about 20GB of information on the local computer, and allow it to access the 15+ TB of information on-line if needed. But, this should be able to learn how humans talk, the meaning and punctuation of sentences, translations from one language to another, and other human-computer interface issues.
