When the advanced pawn on c4, the nineteenth time, he bowed. Kasparov, the undisputed master of chess, before losing a tin can called Deep Blue. I still remember this very cool this afternoon May 11, 1997 where humans had lost face with the machine in this game that symbolized the supremacy of "intelligence" human. Next week, IBM is preparing another blow to the human race.
The humiliation imposed by Deep Blue was quickly forgotten and the game of Chess has been "downgraded" to the status of raw computational puzzle games.
other words, being good at chess began serving as a machine be intelligent and become folk like those who recite the number pi to the 25th decimal place. Excel then gives it to you in a cell.
Watson enters the picture .
IBM has created the most intelligent machine on earth. Connected to all the information online. Brain multiparallel programmed to answer questions from ... Jeopardy!?
next week to issue NOVA, she will compete against the two best players (humans) all-time game show Jeopardy ( trailer ). In fact
Jeopardy is a pretext to demonstrate the power of duplication in real time to a matter which was considered until then as the purview of humans: issues general knowledge.
If it crushes its competitors (or even, if he gets too close), it will finish as "knowledge stored in his head." All knowledge? Probably not, but I put myself over my hand in fire. The questions are "raised" on Google or Wikipedia? Surely. Watson wants the ultimate tool Question / Answer mythical.
And we, what will become of us? Where shall we go next? Probably on sites like Quora where we weight the responses by using our intelligence. Question keep our distance with the machine ...
Postscript : Yes, Watson won
