AI Plays Jeopardy!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Watson_(artificial_intelligence_software)

There's also a New York Times Magazine article that came out today.

It's called Watson and IBM has programmed it to determine answers to questions posed in normal human speech, even answering accurately if the answer is a pun. One example from the NYTM was "A candy bar that is also a Supreme Court justice" which Watson answered as "What is a Baby Ruth Ginsberg?" before the human testers could buzz in.

The question now is, can it love? Or does it feel only hate for the meat brains that oppose its greed?

Hate all the way. The Cylons have returned.

oh I'd love to talk to the guys who program the data retrieval parts of the program....
