Eric, you speak of AI as a technology that never crossed the chasm. Indeed it never became an isolated single product with a practical monopoly but it certainly conquered everything in reality. Most big systems today try as much as possible to incorporate "smarts", i.e. the flexibility of human thinking as opposed to the earlier inflexibility of the machine. Every programmer studies AI in some CS course(s) and is influenced by it as well as by the general atmosphere that we have to get the systems to react like human beings might. There is an analogy with broad band, I think. Cable, DSL, 3G whatever, the triumphant idea is that we need broad band, though broad band itself isn't a single product. Evidently, many enormous innovations do not give rise to a single gorilla or in fact may not give rise to any gorillas.
