Watson is a Computer! now, yes I know, Watson was Sherlock Holmes right hand man, best friend, deputy, whatever you want to call it, but, thats not who/what Im talking about! Dr. David Ferrucci of IBM and 25 others under him have built a computer (Watson) that can answer questions. It can answer questions so well in fact, that IBM is currently using Watson to compete in Jeopardy! AND ITS WINNING! Last night concluded the first of three rounds, pitting Watson against two of Jeopardy!'s best and brightest! Ken Jennings (won 74 games in a row) and Brad Rutter (won 3.25 million, most cash awarded on Jeopardy!). Check out this video of Watson in action!!!
And check this video for some of the earlier stages
