IBM Innovation Center Summer Series: Putting Watson to Work!

Putting Watson to Work!
(same presentation shown on the evening of Monday, Aug 8; Aug 23 event is in the morning)
Presented by: Matt Sanchez, Senior Technology Staff Member, IBM Watson Solutions
August 23rd 7:45-9:15 a.m.
IBM's Watson captured the imagination of over 34 million viewers when it beat the all time champions of the US game show, Jeopardy!. To do so, it navigated the complexities of human speech, churned through 200 million pages of unstructured data in less than 3 seconds, and delivered a confidence based response, all while learning and getting smarter with each outcome. But, as impressive as this accomplishment was, it was only the beginning. IBM is working with leading organizations across industries to put Watson to work. The possibilities are endless! Join us in an engaging discussion of how IBM Watson can fundamentally transform the way businesses and individuals make decisions and how next generation systems will be designed.
