I thought Watson did very well on questions that a human could answer with
Google. Not so much on things that required making an inference. The
Toronto gaffe shows he needs a couple more PTFs. Wonder how Watson would do

Jeopardy is on at 3:30pm CST today, I think it is Watson's last day.
Maybe for an encore they could have Watson play chess against DeepBlue.
Port both Watson and DeepBlue to a virtualized z-platform and he could play
against himself.

One of the really interesting things about this problem is that there is work
going on to revive the tag-architecture work from the early 1980s that was done
at Symbolics and LMI to deal with associational-logic problems like this.

I was just watching Jeopardy with Watson, IBM's 'thinking' computer.
Quite amazing even though his occasional misses are comical. There may be a
PTF available to fix that.
I wonder what the business justification was for building it.

Does Watson use voice recognition? I was under the impression that the
questions are made available to him (it?, them?) in a computer readable
