It's wagers sound kind of funny. I'm sure they're based on mathmatical probabilities though.

Yeah, he bet $947 on the final question. I think he was up to 22,000 or something on this show. Its a 3 parter and tomorrow is going to be the last one.
Can't wait till we can access that machine over the interwebz.

So besides the final jeopardy was it just completely destroying the competition?

Yeah, the other two guys are returning champions and they are both under $10,000. So sad.

Watson was around 36k while the two other human champions ended around 10k and 6k.
It seems like the two humans know the answers but Watson is just quicker to the clicker. Hey, that rhymes.

I saw a documentary a couple days ago about watson. It was cool but Im not THAT impressed. Normal computers can literally calculate problems millions of times faster than humans already... I would be more surprised if a computer the size of watson didnt answer questions better than a human! Dont get me wrong, It is awesome that we as humans could create such a machine... but until watson is more like Hal9000, I wont be that surprised with the outcome

But that's not the point. Jeopardy questions (or answers) involves a lot of word play that computers can't pick up.

very true! That still doesn't excite me about watson... When watson first attempted jeopardy, it got most of the answers wrong for that very reason. What impresses me is the people behind teaching(engineering) watson to learn word play.
So maybe I am wording this wrong! what I really mean to say is that I am impressed with this technology, but it is in no way surprising to me that a computer can do this.

I kinda figured it would go that way. If the machine doesn't make mistakes it should kill.

We computer guys are flattered that you thought we were this smart all along, but this is new and kind of a big milestone.
Chess is a game for computers, Jeopardy is a game for humans.
