Remember when Deep Blue beat the chess champ?

"An IBM supercomputer will take on two human contestants in a TV showdown of artificial intelligence.

IBM's supercomputer Watson will compete in an edition of the popular US quiz show Jeopardy on 14 February for a prize of $1m (£634,000).





It is reminiscent of a 1997 contest between an IBM computer and chess grandmaster Garry Kasparov."
