  1. To be honest, I didn't think the CPU "Watson", was that good. He was obviously good enough to beat me, but against most Jeopardy challengers I don't think the bot would put up a good challenge. I'm still pretty impress, but with it only getting about 1/4 of the answers right it still needs much improvement.

    I think the changes in technology within the next 10 years will be more internal than external. By that, I mean that the advancements will involve making things smaller and more effecient on the inside, before we can assemble something as complicated and as brilliant as a well working robot.
