IBM Watson
Watson is an artificially intelligent computer system capable of answering questions posed in natural language, developed in IBM's Deep QA project by a research team.
The computer system was specially developed to answer questions on the quiz show Jeopardy.
In 2011, Watson competed on Jeopardy against former winners Brad Rutter and Ken Jennings.
Watson received the first prize of$1millions.
