Watson VS Ken Jennings - Tonight
Just a reminder that tonight they are starting the matches of Watson (IBM Supercomputer) versus Ken Jennings and that other guy on Jeopardy. Should be interesting, Watson apparently beat them both in a test match.

I know, and there were only 1 round, no double jeopardy, I think, and no final jeopardy. It's unacceptable!

What about Rutter, he's never lost in any of his previous Jeopardy appearances.
No one is perfect. A babe before walking will first stumble and fall many times but NEVER gives up until he succeeds.

Always remember, ultimately, to never follow any person's belief. Your relationship with God is between you and God.

If nothing else, remember this: religion = subservience, control and conformity, the same template as EVERY government

"Most believers would kill truth if truth threatened their religion." L. K. Washburn

"This crime called blasphemy was invented by priests for the purpose of defending doctrines not able to take care of themselves." Robert Ingersoll

"If anyone wants to know how God feels, it's a warm light as if the sun is poking through dark clouds and lifting your spirits with pure joy."

He did! It was more of an acutuator, and it was off camera. But yes, he had a mechanical button like everyone else.

Or hear. Or see. I was dissapointed when they said that Watson got the questions in a .txt file. I was hoping it interpreted actual spoken language.

Unbeliever, are you?

AI is very interesting to say the least.

I'm disappointed or encouraged that it reads the questions as a .txt file. wow.

i would have thought it was something like the language of light... ha ha...
If it walks like a duck...
