An emulated intelligence system includes an input for receiving information in the form of a query and a parsing system for parsing the query into grammatical elements. A database of individual concepts is included, each concept defining relationships between the concept and other concepts in the database. A conceptualizing system defines a list of related concepts associated with each of the parsed elements of the query and the embodied relationships associated therewith and a volition system then determines if additional concepts are associated with an action that may be associated with pre-stored criteria. An action system is then provided for defining an action to be taken based upon the relationships defined by the conceptualizing system.
