Can we build code that can think on its own?
For example, can we build a component that can learn from the inputs that it gets?
I was trying to build a component that can handle additional events based on user inputs. This component can adapt to user's requirement by changing from a 2d to a 3d component on its own.
UI has come a long way and today's user's expect the UI to hold the data within it and expect the UI to "analyze" this data and display appropriate responses through data visualizations to tell the users what action to take!
Talking about 2d to 3d and vise-versa, I believe the marriage between flare and papervision could create the best of the 2d and 3d worlds!
Building a new component that takes ideas from flare and papervision and has Artificial Intelligence embedded makes it mouth watering!

Flex Data Visualization & Charting
There are some cool open source projects that are creating ripples in flex. I find the best of all to be Flare. Flare is very flexible and light-weight. It provides foundation classes to create ultimate data-visualization components with useful animations, transitions and effects.
There is another such project called BirdEye. This is pretty cool but still not as great as Flare. However the vision of this project is to create an end-to-end solution for data-visualization. Not the fun stuff that developers would like to reuse.
Flare:
Flare is an ActionScript library for creating visualizations that run in the Adobe Flash Player. From basic charts and graphs to complex interactive graphics, the toolkit supports data management, visual encoding, animation, and interaction techniques. Even better, flare features a modular design that lets developers create customized visualization techniques without having to reinvent the wheel.
BirdEye:
BirdEye is a community project to advance the design and development of a comprehensive open source information visualization and visual analytics library for Adobe Flex. The actionscript-based library enables users to create multi-dimensional data visualization interfaces for the analysis and presentation of information.
Have fun with all the cool data-visualization stuff!
