Jeopardy! The IBM Challenge
IBM's Watson http://www-943.ibm.com/innovation/us/watson/ will start three consecutive days of Jeopardy! contests, arguably a benchmark of ultimate knowledge, against the show's two most successful and celebrated contestants, Ken Jennings and Brad Rutter. The showdown starts tonight! http://www.jeopardy.com/news/watson1x7ap4.php
Meet Watson:
* Workload optimized design
* 90 servers
* DeepQA software architecture
* Power7 System
* Advanced text-to-speech capability
"The grand prize for this competition will be $1 million with second place earning $300,000 and third place $200,000. Rutter and Jennings will donate 50 percent of their winnings to charity and IBM will donate 100 percent of its winnings to charity."
"Beyond Jeopardy!, the IBM team is working to deploy this technology across industries such as healthcare, finance and customer service."
It'll blow your socks off! Be there! It's instupituous!
