In my experience, memory is an association, sometimes with senses or thought processes. I often find myself attempting to trace a pecular thought or sense of deja vu, and I can usually do it, and I end up with a particular sentence or phrase that sparked a long chain of thought. Try it out with a random thought and see where you get to.
Not a good road to go down. Movies, Books, its just not smart to make a machine that is. Their purpose is to assist, to make man's work easier, not to think for them. Sorry, I'm preaching, but if this machine takes over and names its capitol "Rock," you'll know who to lynch.
