I remember having a similar feeling of wonder watching the amazing movie "Her."

I then went down a thought path of what level of personal data the AI would have had in the movie, and started thinking about what that would look like from a monetization/privacy standpoint given todays realities of advertising, NSA surveillance, etc. Pretty scary.

In fact, I'd love for someone to do a cut of clips from that movie with overlays detailing all the bits of personal data that would have been fed to a company's servers based on what is happening in the scene--there are some particularly juicy scenes for that if I recall correctly.
