http://ebiquity.umbc.edu/blogger/2009/07/25/aaai-study-examines-long-term-ai-futures-and-impact-on-society/ EBB is the ebiquity research group\\\'s blog at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County (UMBC). We focus on technologies that facilitate the design, implementation and control of distributed, intelligent information systems -- mobile and pervasive computing, ad hoc networking, multiagent systems, knowledge representation and reasoning, and the semantic web. As the tides of technology ebb and flow, we hope the good ideas wash up on our beach and the bad ones drift back out to sea.

Running those controller systems on turing machines or having their sensors and outputs be made of inorganic material isn't the big issue here...
