Hunter's comment

IBM Watson is often considered the number one artificial intelligent system in the world among other competitors like the Google’s deepmind and Microsoft’s Oxford. Watson is a supercomputer which harnesses the power of cognitive computing, natural language processing, deep learning, big data and machine learning to provide a cutting edge, state of art innovation and solutions. It could be recalled that in the year 2011, Watson defeated human contestants or arguably human world champion of a US television game show called “Jeopardy”. This defeat is similar to a supercomputer system defeating a human in a quiz competition.
IBM Watson powers vast arrays of businesses and companies today.
