    Default First Chess, Now Jeopardy?!

    Can IBM supercomputer Watson beat Ken 'Stormin' Mormon' Jennings at Jeopardy? Say it ain't so.
    'Jeopardy' champs take on the ultimate contestant

    Who do you think will win?

    My prediction: Kenbot!

    They say it's harder for the computer to answer trivia questions than play chess. Because of interpreting the context etc.

    This should be good. I really enjoyed watching Jennings win for two months straight. He's a machine, haha, get it? Don't know anything about this other cat, Brad Rutter, he's gotta be good of course.
