lol watson isn't REALLY smart, he's just quickly picking up answers from a database. It has nothing to do with AI, that's like saying because my 4 year old sister can use google and access all of human knowledge at her fingertips, she's smart than isaac newton or einstein. Obviously she's not, she's just picking out answers from a database.

You /sci/ sheeple will believe anything

>> No.2542135

I'm sure he calculates the wagers with some kind of statistics based on his knowledge of the category and his performance relative to the other players.

As far as the final jeopardy question goes...
It was a two layered question. First, the contestant needed to determine a city based on the name of two airports. Second, the contestant needed to find the names of the airports based on the clues given. Not in that order, but both of these had to be done. Most likely, Watson can't perform abstraction to more than one level. I'm sure they picked that question specifically to see if he could or because they knew he couldn't and they wanted to see what would happen.

Contestants get 5 seconds to answer after buzzing in. In the demos contestants could beat Watson if they were really gunning for it, but I think they might have changed something so it goes for it if it thinks it can get it in the next 5 seconds.

5 seconds of computer processing is huge, you might as well just go for it every time.

>> No.2542150

>>2542133
Hey dumbass, maybe you should read about its algorithmic functionality before you say something stupid like that. Language is a complex and axiomatically arbitrary structure that the human mind is capable of parsing. The fact that a computer is able to dissect these sentences and make meanings out of them is incredible. It's not a simple Google search, in fact he isn't hooked up to the internet at all. Watson is a stepping stone in the pursuit of true AI no matter how you look at it.

If you intelligently use google, it's easy to find the answer. The lookup isn't the hardest part (though google's lookup is extremely advanced). The hardest part is the part that's easiest for humans, which is meaningfully parsing the language both in the question and in the search results.

The Internet is a communication network. The only way to learn anything over the Internet is from a database that happens to be connected to the Internet. Google doesn't work by being connected to the Internet, but from having a giant database of what's on the Internet in its servers. Watson has its own giant database on its own giant servers, so it doesn't need the Internet.
