Why Watson is a ‘Super Guy’ not a computer – a true Man amongst Men.
For those of you unfamiliar with Watson – I’ll explain………
Watson is an “IBM Product” capable of being a contestant on the TV show Jeopardy – Alex Trebek – answering answers with a question?! – nicknamed “Yep-erdy” by my college roommate Jon Fong (who was a daily watcher) - and famous for producing millionaire knowledge nerds who answer…..answers with questions?! …..God I love that show……
Back to the point, Watson is a super hum...sorry computer. Watson is a male. Why? Cause Watson is a boys name and boys dominate girls when it comes to being super smart.
Watson uses keywords from the question/clue/whatever, searches his 4 Terabyte storage space and produces his best match . Contextually speaking, which Watson wouldn’t understand, 4 Tera-rapture-bytes is like 4 home computer’s worth of memory now a day – all I can think about is….”that sounds doable….at least more doable than I initially thought”.
Contextual clues are lost in translation and His question, which really was an answer, in Final Jeopardy was – “What is Toronto?” – to the category of US Cities and the answer was: “Its largest airport was named for a World War II hero; it’s second largest, for a World War II battle.” You mean to tell me that Watson said Toronto when the Category was US Cities?! Since Watson is a guy – let’s look at it from a guys perspective.
I’ll leave you with this…..
Clue: ‘Defines Moral fiber and Father to the US’

- Guy Trait #1 - He wasn’t listening. Typical in all male species.
- Guy Trait #2 - Tried to pretend he was listening by saying something stupid.
- Guy Principle # 1 – This drives Trait #1 and Trait #2…….It didn’t matter because the game was already over before the Final even stared. Why play the game if you can’t win…..or have already won?
- And finally – US magazine’s headquarters is located in Toronto…..duuuhhhhhh.
