From labs.google.com:


What else would you do with artificially intelligence and genetic data? They're obviously trying to create superintelligent robots that will index our DNA like Google Desktop indexes our computers. Anyone who doesn't let their genes be indexed will be vaporized and erased from history, because by this time Google will have control over all the information sources in the world. Once they figure out what each gene does they'll index our minds. Then they'll hook us up to one giant supercomputer that will figure out what we should think of and make us think of it.

You can't hide from Google, people, they will prevail.

well I highly doubt that google will pull off a successful OS system to many competitors M$ and Mac pretty much have that control and any OS made are pretty much eating up by those two anyways.

The same with AI you need the money and the resources to pull that off along with the right people who have the right skills and that won't be cheap either.

But with the job positions they are talking about basically means you need engineering skills along with computer skills that meet the high standards of successful companies that deal with them as well.

You forget google money is all tied up in stock i don't know to many people at google who get straight cash from investing.

LOL!

Very fun!
Google's engineers and creators are really brilliant indeed,
but such idea is very "Hollywoodian" (hey, this would make a
nice film - full of clichés)

What you want? Lead the "Operation Search Engine" and attack
Google's "Headquarters"?

If Google takes over the world, I'll go willingly.

Here Here, LOL

But serously, lets think about it for a minute. You bolded three things, the first:
1) Artificial Intelligence: Just imagine how much more stable your computer would be if it could forsee errors that would result from certin actions? The way it is now every feature of a program (with the exception of VBA enabled applications) is coded before hand and the developer must expect all possable errors, which is near imposable, that in a nut shell is why programs crash, so imagine a program that will say, before it crashes, "THat's a bad I idea, I won't do it". This technology will also cary into server technology, no doubt that is what google cares about. Or imagine a web index that determins what the best result based upon user prefrence, more on that later. Not to mention other possable things. Translation, smart searching ("I want to find information about clouds"), fintering, smart compression, easy programing (determin what you want based upon sentances rather then code), and much more.
2) Genetic Algorithms, all that need to be said is the defination:
or how about understanding how the human brain works, not to hook it up to a computer, but rather to make a data storage system based upon the results. Research estimates that our brain is capable of storing the equivalant of many many terabytes of info, so how, google as descused in a diffrent thread has an insane amount of informaiton to store, so how about a more efficant way of storing it?
3) machine learning: THis one related to what I said about smart indexes, meaning what? you say. Well simply put google already tries that, And people have taken advantage of how it is done, in a process called Google Bombing Now what that means is that if you search google right now for "failure" George Bushes biography is the top result, that means that according to google a large number of people are linking to that page with the context of failure. But a smart system would take into account the amount of time a user searched for a topic, how long they stayed on a page after clicking the result, and wither people who search for failure actualy click George Bushes bio, if every 1 in 4000 people who search for failure actualy click his bio then eventualy even though results from the spiders might still rang it top, that page would move down in favor of something that the google user found to be a better result.


You see all a simple (if you can call that simple) explination. Besides tell me what advantage would google have controling everybodys mind? then there would be no business for them, as money wouldn't be an issue, and people wouldn't search for anything because they would have no nead, google wouldn't tell them to, because vegatibles don't need to know what product had the upc code 6618801330 LOL

google is comsidable awesome indeed.to take over the world is a great thing for google.maybe google's opertating system or multimedia player film product,food arean...will be famous in future.google logo is really the most prevalent symbol.

Google is one day going to be better than all the rest, unless one of its competitors (Old or New) steps in and creates a whole new brand of...stuff.
Maybe someone will beat Google one day, but that day will be far from today.

Google is awesome, with all kinds of new stuff coming out, google may overtak even microsoft in creating Operating Systems. But take over the world? Not in a million years, unless theres really no other competitor out there pushing google off the peak of the mountain

Its true Google are going to take over the world and I can prove it:

check out this 'article': Google Purge

just to clear this up I am aware this is a joke (hopefully), but there's always the chance that Google are evil and plan to index the genetic information of the world, anyway if this did happen I would also gladly let them. And hey rather Google than Microsoft.

But back to the taking over the world its already started to take my computer, what with Google Desktop Search and Google Talk, if there was an OS, i'd have that too.

. Anyway watch out for brian liquifying Googlebots, coming to a street near you soon (ok probably not, but its funny)

I wouldn't mind if Google took over the world. They've come up with some neat ideas and they just produce more and more goodies for all of us to download and try out.
