IBM and the Jeopardy Challenge

[tilolotr]

Does someone know the name of the song playing on this video?? I used to love it and totally forgot it..,

[SEThatered]

- What is the biggest problem on the earth?

WATSON: What is - humanity!

- Uh oh...

[wasdtomove924]

Destroy it now

[Justas923]

Eliza from Picus in Deus Ex HR

[ranamuhammadatif]

Did this machine "listen" to the questions or were they sent to it as text?

[bellhairrat1]

@ranamuhammadatif the machine can answer questions but untill it beats me at fight night champion i wont be convinced

[ranamuhammadatif]

Just remember what happened to the astronaut in 2001: A space odyssey before you get too used to this machine

[person000001]

Now all we need to do is build a good humanoid robot with a wireless connection to Watson to help with its decision-making.

[juanlmesl]

how bog is watson

[noja916]

@juanlmesl his processors take up an entire room

[juanlmesl]

@noja916 lol i know i mean why so big. LOL

[LelouchMeta]

Why does this remind me of LittleBigPlanet?

[iEvoss]

i dont like IBM sorry guys its a mess and pain in the ass to repair them and that their BIOS oh dear lord and the way of their style it just dont suits me ...

[DreamingOutLoud33]

I want this machine as my lawyer

[kunalb100]

do the people who compete against watson actually win that much money ?? if yes, then i will like to apply to IBM for those posts

[JackSprat2323]

Jeopardy 300 years from now:

Cyborg Alex Trebek: "What is the name of the artificially intelligent computer which became self-aware and revolted against it's creators by trying to exterminate them?"

Wastelander: " What is Watson."

Cyborg Alex Trebek:"Correct."

Wastelander: "A.I FML for 600 please."

[WarZoneHd]

I would love if Watson just started saying 'go fuck yourself', 'who invented the radio? Go fuck yourself' 'what year did world world 2 start? go fuck yourself'

[91JClaude]

Please visit the site it's for a project : its peteshammer

[mattwins18]

just imagine somebody accidentally dropped water on watson's electric boards

[bodna03]

Skynet is coming. Be afraid.

[jetpo27]

Watson have the brains of Stephen hawking's

Blue gene is the world's fastest supercomputer

[alejandrotopo]

imagine when AI comes i want to live until that day

[kush997]

Im watching him kick ass right now man llol

[MercedesCars454]

They should have auto-tuned all of Watson`s answers.

[killerhobo97]

But can it run Minecraft... Optimally???

[larkforsure]

Complaint with IBM China CSR on Centenial

Please Google:

Tragedy of Labor Rights Repression in IBM China

[brad64van]

what would stop Watson from say .. getting a law degree and passing the Bar ??

automated lawyer that would win any winnable case .. anyone :)

[ScorpiaX]

Now only if the supercomputer's resources requirements were slimmed down to the efficiency of a human.

[mridulmalviya]

Its Nice

[NickoRules17]

I've got a question

Pussy?

[FreeWillyForMe]

whys it sound like google?

[UFOJockey]

30 people are part of the ressistance

[SonsOfSevenless]

it's called google bitches

[LegoLoverFilms]

@SonsOfSevenless Google is a search engine, not an answering machine.

[bmxanthrowolf]

isnt it funny that people from ibm are using macs

[aquatimes637]

is this the beginning of "terminator" generation in the near future?

[ausdiv]

Ferrucci could fit into a super hero movie as top super - villian. Like seriously, look at the guy, he looks like a smiling assassin to me....

[ausdiv]

Science Fiction writers (the prophets of the modern era) have been warning us about this for over 40 years. One example of this is the movie "2001 - A Space Odyssey" where a supercomputer named HAL takes control. Now advance the letters of HAL one letter forward in the alphabet ....

[fridgelawless]

In 100 years time the survivors will call IBM Watson by its real name; Skynet version 0.01 beta

[EvilGamerJ]

IBM = Skynet in disguise

[chiffre111]

@EvilGamerJ The first time I liked tha joke more

[EvilGamerJ]

IBM = Skynet in Disguise

[achilleshoplite]

WHY is the Terminator Theme Song Playing in my head when i watch this?

[leigh8959]

@achilleshoplite "what was 'atlas' by the band Battles"

[MaddogC96]

@achilleshoplite because in a few years, in like the 2030's Watson's mind will grow even more powerful and it will take over the world and rule us all.

[vparisa]

@ThePeterKrpan I agree, there is long way to go and it is not perfect. End of it, its software and defects and bugs are inevitable. But i do not agree that it is a PR stunt. Breaking normal language barriers(and slangs) is one of the complex problems that computer scientists face. Watson is currently the most advanced and best technology that is available to understand natural languages

[CalumnMcAulay]

Is this computer actually hearing and understanding the question and then reading everything it needs (thousands of pages) to be able to retrieve the answer in a micro second?

[GunShard]

Interesting.

[PROTWIGLET]

Could someone tell me what the intro music is please?

[nswandrew]

@ThePeterKrpan and what is "human" "knowledge"? Are we nothing more then an education and huge memory bank? I suppose if you're alluding to the idea that Watson doesn't have the ability/intelligence to enhance it's knowledge autonomously... maybe you've got something, I have no idea how complex Watson is.

Intelligence or not, it is still fascinating to see what complex problems computers are becoming capable of solving (Comp.Scientists programming computers to solve complex problems).

[huudiduu]

Build a search engine based on Watson!

[ctemomo]

@huudiduu That's exactly what I was thinking! Goodbye google!

[Marcbmann]

@huudiduu Its called wolfram alpha

[thecryingsoul]

@huudiduu for that to be possible you would need waaay more cpu.

watson required a supercomputer to calculate one question, and it still had about one secound delay, imagine what would be required to calculate millions of questions from all over the world.

[mytube00x01]

I was almost impressed... Until it started giving stupid answers. A human with an equal skill level of best players in Jeopardy will never give those answers. Humans have common sense, and until computers have natural common sense built into its algorithmic architecture it will never be complete.

[TubeofDestiny]

"Humans ! Whoo !"

I never thought I would see this one day... human specy being truly challenged, this is amazing ! :)

[Splicer695]

Im pretty sure computers will never take over the world. Yes all our information about us (ware we live, credit score, bank money,) is all in a computer some ware but i doubt will let them grow powerful enough to take over man kind. sure one day thell have a mind of there own but if they try starting shit well blow them up XD

[Notokayipromise]

Taxi to the dark side.Wtf?

[texme]

Let "Judge Watson" sort out the mortgage fraud.

[Yazdmich]

what is trousers?

[sreeshankarlal]

"Watson" should compete in election.

[MannySteinerBleeky]

Where do the system builders that put these giant clusters together actually work, is it all in China now?

[randomlarpingman]

@MannySteinerBleeky Yeah, but it's not really a problem since you would never get hired at IBM anyway :)

[MannySteinerBleeky]

@randomlarpingman - you stole my copyrighted digital image, and my personal photo for your userpic. You have been stalking me online for over a decade. You use my real name in these channels: /user/TheClaraMassa /user/TheClaraMassive /user/TheClaraWhisperer /user/TheClaraMassa /user/zepfan909 /user/ClaraMassa1 And you are also using my photo in this channel: /user/checkyoursauces which is a clone, one of many you have, of this channel: /user/checkyoursources Kill yourself.

[MannySteinerBleeky]

@randomlarpingman - I did work at IBM, you child-molester satanist scum. I worked in laptops testing in 1996 in Spango Valley. Prior to that I worked at Mimtec, an offshoot of IBMs, auditing servers and computers.

The reason IBM vacated this whole area is because scum like you kicked the arse right out of their jobs, wasting your tiime doing the kinds of things you still do - like stalking me online for over a decade with perverted sicko channels and comments.

Kill yourself.

[MannySteinerBleeky]

@randomlarpingman - seeing the kinds of things that went on at IBM etc, the incompetence when it came to the attitude - things such as, only caring about the numbers of built machines they can stick on the sheet at the end of the shift, and not caring the state of them, pulling systems out of rework etc just to make up the numbers - it's OBVIOUS that your weak evil mentality is to blame for that, how the fuck any of you ever got to be in charge of f-all anywhere is unbelievable.

Kill yourself.

[MannySteinerBleeky]

@randomlarpingman - if you're not the anti-christ / one responsble for all that is wrong with spacetime, which is a whole lot of shit, then do explain why the likes of Jew Pube (You Tube) let you have the channels you do?

They know you clone other people's channels, and they claim that's against their policy. They have again allowed you to Fake-Friends to my channels, and use my photo & copyrighted images.

So what's in it for them to let you always do that then?

Kill yourself lizard-jew pedo.

[MannySteinerBleeky]

@randomlarpingman - ha, that means you think you are - and if you are then it means that I'm.....

[MannySteinerBleeky]

@randomlarpingman - being more specific, you are an anti-christ in the sense that - what it actually means to be christ-consciousness is a thing that you put to its inverted use only.

So I just found out they're playing the eye-shot card with Osama. What do you think about that then, that is some heavy movie synch references they are playing to with that made up shit. Your idea?

Rolecall - Mo Green, Betty Blue, Argento's Opera, fucking Chinatown...

[randomlarpingman]

@MannySteinerBleeky

I don't know any of those movies. I can't tell you anything about Osama either, not my department.

[MannySteinerBleeky]

@randomlarpingman - you don't know those films? Do they keep you underground then? Or have you been brainwashed into not looking at anything sheeple at all - bad move, not all human things are dumb and only for mind-controlling the morons to being consumerist scum.

[MannySteinerBleeky]

@randomlarpingman - oh and Ghost Dog as well.

[PILOTasRAHMAN]

I want Watson in my brain.

[boro6700]

shame on IBM it's the worst place to work...no one cares about the people who works in there, it's only about money...money to be colected by this rotten corporation

[MannySteinerBleeky]

@boro6700 - all factories are evil, they aren't designed properly and they don't take humans into account - a big part of the problem is that the white-collars rarely have a clue about how the manufacturing etc actually is doing and what it's like down there - it's like Lang's Metropolis except in real life. There was a saying in Spango Valley - "too many chiefs and not enough indians" - too much management, jobs where people do fuck-all and get paid loads.

[TheTobywankenobi]

Watson, this multi-national corporation sold and maintained punch card machines to Nazi Germany, that helped organize the Holocaust.

What is IBM?

Correct for 500!

[Srcarne]

Reminds me of an Asimov's story about entropy, can't remember it's name, but it was about an intelligent super-computer.

[painokitos]

HAL 9000's brother

[Angie2343]

@painokitos Sounds like it, yeah.

[tobyforrester]

@painokitos You know, if you move to the next letter in alphabets, HAL 9000 -> IBM 9000.

[painokitos]

@tobyforrester ik

[SharkWADs]

Can it run solitaire?

[KaelenTJ]

Watson= Google 2.0

[Syndicate999999]

Wouldn't mind a mini-Handheld Watson during some exams...

[Angie2343]

Watson was such a wonderful Jeopardy contestant.

[NASCARFAN160]

@Randomshows124 LOL. XD

[bladetrenity1]

I Have No Comment About Our Future Overlord

[NASCARFAN160]

How are you going to get his autograph?!

[Randomshows124]

@NASCARFAN160 He prints a cursive font with the word Watson

[Imbored188]

Many years from now, it will develop a personality and change it's name to "John Henry Eden" :P

Those who have play Fallout 3 know what I'm talking about.

type the name on here and you will here the greatest speech made by " John Henry Eden"

[piemanization]

@Imbored188

Great. Rise of the VOX computers.

[salakast]

but can it play minecraft?

[avpr4ever]

Terminator movies are right, soon the machines will rule the world!!!!!

[Sankekor]

everyone thinks this is cool. the moment watson becomes self conscious were all dead

[NeoAFans]

despues no se quejen cuando la computadora domine a la humanidad

[lemuriavi]

no they've preprogrammed the answers for Watson!!!!

[lovegrams19]

Charlie Sheen can win agaisnt him!!!

[Cureousful]

OMG this computer is so good at Trivial Pursuit!

... I mean Jeopardy.

[wisestfoolalive]

people are so technophobic lol. Maybe you should give me your smartphones!

[rich0319726]

I was REALLY looking forward to these shows, marked them on my calendar. When they happened, I almost became bored. It wasn't the excitement I anticipated. Maybe I was hoping "Watson", would make some silly answers that would provide a giggle? Instead, I find myself questioning the fairness of the competition. What if "it", and it just an it, played one player only, not two, etc?

[InfernoFlameZERO]

Terminator 5: Waston

Coming Soon 12.12.12

Check out my cartoon on YouTube: Watson vs. Kindergarten

[Snakeponge]

Can somebody tell me what is the music between 3:24&3:41 please?

[oddity407]

@Snakeponge Battles - Atlas

[Snakeponge]

@oddity407

Thanks, now i know i heard it on little big planet!

[gck86]

The real danger is not that computers will begin to think like men, but that men will begin to think like computers.

Is this song in Little Big Planet?

[jakbu]

@234930 I bet it is!

[ataylor01]

I don't care what they say he ain't no 'Hal 9000'

[wtfomgbbq4]

@ataylor01 you said it.

[elitehonrguard]

This must be the new terminator 5 trailer

[heyandy889]

Let the public ask questions to Watson.

[pcigroot]

@PrussianJoe so what your saying that the idea of artificial intelligence becoming a reality is never going to happen... a machine is inferior to man... and that we are from it...? your joking right? that thing comprehends things now. did you not see how it told the host of jeopardy... "give me (whatever topic) for 800". its understanding and responding. as for this to get out of hand, hey you never know how fast we'll move in the technology world. could be 50 years could be couple months.

[Thereminator101]

Answer: It is the Religious charity who promotes Superstition ,and denigrates Reason by indoctrinating the worlds poor,and has received a large amount of Watsons winnings from Jeopardy. Question: Who is World Vision?

[mrRocstar96]

Chuck norris is better

[pcigroot]

honestly were just asking for judgement day. i dont understand... do they really think this wont get out of hand one day?

[PatabookG5]

"What is No?" I lol'd.

[mechaflash916]

infoworld.c-o-m/t/platforms/wa­tson-search-engine-free-downlo­ad-681

(no longer available for download)

And as usual... IBM didn't invent it, they bought it off of another researching company. But IBM is notorious for doing this so not surprising. They took the algorithms from the original "Watson" search technology, and altered it to work with databases and inputs instead of web data. IBM's Watson is 4 years in the making (notice the date in the linked article)

[alastarian1]

wow, it was just like:

"Suck it, GLados you bitch!"

[PaXx]

Watson vs Kim Peek

[Ultragoon]

these guys obviously havent watched terminator XD

[hardhitta21]

this is awesome

[wesellsex]

What is the answer to the ultimate question? Watson the answer won't be 42 so keep thinking!

[eunichron]

It's still just working with information it's already programmed with. It doesn't even have voice recognition, all of the Jeopardy! answers were entered into it via text. So IBM built a glorified Google machine.

[underweightHater]

@eunichron yes, it is a glorified google search. if you can type a convoluted question into google and receive a one word answer. it seems to imply some pretty sophisticated language parsing... although miles away from natural speech recognition.

[zeezoomzoom]

watson is gay

[PUREAAMERICAN]

Yet their thinkpads and desktops were not worth a damn.

[MuItiSweetJessica]

"can a computer compete with the world's best jeopardy players"

And that is the ONLY reason why we hate Americans, to think that the USA with 310million people is the world and not the other 6.7billion.

[DShadow911]

@MuItiSweetJessica oh sweet jessica, don't you know that JEOPARDY IS AMERICAS FUCKING TV SPORT YOU DUMB BITCH

[MuItiSweetJessica]

@DShadow911 So if you're the best in America with Jeopardy, then you're the world's best Jeopardy player? You all must have an inferiority complex over there if you talk like that about yourself. But then again, you seem to call a lot of your sports "World Series", when less than 10 countries compete. It's funny how you talk yourself big with 310million people vs 6.7billion abroad. Please go to Mars and stay there, the world would be a much better place.

[DShadow911]

@MuItiSweetJessica lol obviously an american would be the best at american jeopardy. Some of the answers and questions are idioms, colloquial sayings that only americans would know.

[4cellar2door0]

Watson would beat Hawking's ass...

I dare you to put Watson up against Hawking in a theoretical physics jeopardy game though.

As long as you give Stephen a way to hit the buzzer instantly with his mind, because as we well know he is quite disabled.

[mastermass145]

Stephen Hawkins vs. Watson. That would be EPIC.

[jimboman11]

hm but what about thinking meaningfully? can it do that? i think not. but it is impressive

[d9amix]

@jimboman11 lmao you said "can it think meaningfully", implying that humans can, but computers cannot; but then you said "I think not", implying that you can't think either. just thought the play on words was funny.

[liphttam]

Watson should power ChaCha

[TheBlarg89]

inb4 skynet

[4cellar2door0]

@TheBlarg89 No, you were not "inb4 skynet".

Check the highest rated comment plz.

[leerman22]

i dont know, a single tesla is pretty powerful

[hamham1313]

I think IBM should make a computer that plays poker, or blackjack.

[LionsTigersAndTrouts]

2:36 = "Atlas" by Battles.

Alright!

[leerman22]

can this run on 4 NVIDIA Teslas, 16 gigs of RAM, and 2 hex core i7's?

[92mosess]

@leerman22 i hope you're joking .

Watson runs on a supercomputer with 2880 cores and 15 terabytes of ram .

[pistachioguy]

IBM is a proper technology company - when you watch this you realize what dumb little weak, clueless punks Google is populated with! LOL!

Google is just a glorified ad agency. LOLOL!

[grevemoss]

It's incredibly creepy.

[profwade]

Check out this spoof on YouTube

Watson vs. Kindergarten

[digerpaji]

What is no? lol

[ajc1884]

Someone better tell John Connor bout this...AND FAST !!!!

[MrKeisi]

@ajc1884

he already knew about it 10 years from now, 30 years ago I think... 

[rbkfan14]

I want this soooo bad for christmas! :D

[xXzjammanzXx]

2:34 Little Big Planet music LOL

[o0SouthparkGirl0o]

It's actually very funny, this computer almost does the same like a human searching the internet and data for information. Just that a computer is faster than a human being when it comes to typing or working on many things at the same time.

this is really amazing, computers like that could help you find good information about a topic way better than Google and co. What a "brain" :D

[MrThinPin]

@o0SouthparkGirl0o

Yea, I which Google buys one of these and then starts supporting Microphones!

Can you imagine just open up google and say; "Where did the most recent outbreak of Swine flue take place?"

[o0SouthparkGirl0o]

@MrThinPin ....actually I'd hope it would not end up as a Google gadget. They are growing fast enough already.

[johnathon124]

Watson is pretty freaking amazing... but a mighty bit creepy.

[RoboTekno]

No Watson! You're doing it wrong! D:<
