Prove it! We should replace YOU with IBM Watson, junk bot!

While they mentioned Chess, there was no mention of the Computer Go problem, that is, getting a computer to be able to play Go beyond the level of studied amateur. Still a great episode of Nova as usual. I would love to see IBM tackle that next since that would solve a few more key issues like visual/spacial issues, then combine wherever they are with the Deep Blue and their goals of the Watson program with whatever they would call their Go computer and you would have a fairly nice AI system.
I wonder why they didn't plug in speech recognition so it could hear the answers... of course at the same time a real Jeopardy player may buzz in before he finishes so I guess it needs to be able to see the answer at the same time...

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag.(show it anyway)

Absolutely fascinating. I'm going to give this another *promote as the Jeopardy Episodes start tonight! (February 14th)

Let's get Siftbot on it too for the next game event. Maybe he can beat IBM Watson!

GG, Watson!
