Natural Language Search, Robotic Exoskeleton

Will PowerSet, a new search engine based on natural-language expressions set to debut later this year, rival Google in the near future? (Read Powerset article here) Will commericially available robotic exoskeletons be available soon? The researchers say they aren't planning on commercial production, but have successfully created a robo-skeleton that test patients learned to used in 30 minutes. (Read Robotic exoskeleton here)
I would sure be interested in my own robo-exoskeleton, and a search engine I could talk to. "Hey, Powerset AI, when did the world begin," and my answer would pop up right on the screen. "Hey, that house needs to be moved." "Don't worry, I can just pick it up and move it with my handy robo-exo-skeleton."
Sounds like fun.
