Nice to see Seth being quoted. As a vendor in this market space, I can indeed confirm the growing number of client communications that center around this topic.

I would have liked to learn a bit more about the technical details. Sometimes software vendors make exaggerated claims about this technology in particular. Going beyond basic keyword-like symbolic processing to semantic/idiomatric processing is no small leap.
