Like, why would either one ever leave the house?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;Amit Kagian, an M.Sc. graduate from the [Tel Aviv University] School of Computer

from this being the modern equivalent of “mirror mirror on the wall”
and all the vanity that could come from it, it’s actually quite
important. The importance lies in the fact that this is a significant
breakthrough in creating artificial intelligence in computers.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Also: a giant leap forward in making webcams &lt;i&gt;that much&lt;/i&gt; creepier.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src="http://nerve.com/CS/aggbug.aspx?PostID=84417" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description><category domain="http://nerve.com/CS/blogs/scanner/archive/tags/computers/default.aspx">computers</category><category domain="http://nerve.com/CS/blogs/scanner/archive/tags/nerdiness+unrestrained/default.aspx">nerdiness unrestrained</category><category domain="http://nerve.com/CS/blogs/scanner/archive/tags/webcams/default.aspx">webcams</category><category domain="http://nerve.com/CS/blogs/scanner/archive/tags/skynet/default.aspx">skynet</category><category domain="http://nerve.com/CS/blogs/scanner/archive/tags/sexy+ladies/default.aspx">sexy ladies</category><category domain="http://nerve.com/CS/blogs/scanner/archive/tags/artifical+intelligence/default.aspx">artifical intelligence</category><category domain="http://nerve.com/CS/blogs/scanner/archive/tags/autofellation/default.aspx">autofellation</category></item></channel></rss>
