Final Jeopardy!
Three upcoming episodes of Jeopardy will feature two human contestants battling an IBM computer to see how successful scientists were in creating a computer that can mimic human intelligence. Two former champions, Ken Jennings and Brad Rutter, will play against "Watson," a computer program developed by IBM's artificial intelligence team. The episodes will air between February 14th and 16th. "Watson" will be represented by a round avatar. The winner gets a $1 million prize. IBM plans to donate its winnings to charity, while Jennings and Rutter said they would give half of their prize money away.
