Tim Bray talks about intelligent search:

[...] any search system that could exhibit the kind of intelligence I've described could as a side-effect pass the Turing test, and perhaps qualify for citizenship and protection under the laws of the land.

I remember having read about a company some years ago that developed some sort of algorithm for summarizing a text intelligentely. This ability is pretty much required to make search engines intelligent. Unfortunately it has been too long ago that I heard about it to remember the details. It would be nice to know how far the science on this topic went. Anyone knows?
