Watson on "Jeopardy!" ... cool!

So, Day 2 was neat--Watson is way ahead of the human competitors.

There were some puzzling moments, which I am sure sometime soon the IBM researchers will explain:

• Why did Watson come up with those strange dollar figures for the "Daily Double"
• Why did Watson come up with Toronto, when the question said "American cities?"
• And, of course, on Monday, Watson coming up with the same incorrect response that had already been given by another contestant (quickly clarified by IBM researchers that Watson didn't have the benefit of that input)

Should be an interesting finale later this evening.  We are certainly entering a brave new world.

Artificial Intelligence: Watson on Jeopardy!

Strangely enough, I am rooting for Hal Watson to win, and to win by a huge margin.  Tune in, folks--the human competitors are tough champions. 
Should be a great show
