In light of the recent post on intelligence being analogous to the maximization of entropy available for future choices, I think things will get a lot more interesting in the future. Skynet may not be far off... (Even if computers can't feel, they might be able to put up a good fight.) That said, I don't know how I would feel about game characters stalking me on Twitter for a few days before showing up unannounced at my in-game job... Sometimes it's nice to know it's a game. (To say nothing of the autonomous military applications.)
