Giving a computer an "intuition" feature still escapes us. And general purpose robots? Way off in the future without a major breakthrough in AI. I am still hopeful.

A bunch of researchers put together a computer to challenge that game show. The computer had certain advatages and disadvantages. While it had a 4 terrabit internal hard drive including the full wikipedia library, it didn't recognize certain nuances of the English language. Watson was devloped by IBM. <br /><br />It possesses a dynamic prgram structure that allows it to learn from its mistakes.<br /><br />In the $1M dollar championship challenge, it won.<br /><br />AI is one step nearer.
