Watson is IBM’s super-intelligent computer, which was unveiled to the general public in 2011 in an American TV quiz where he defeated his human opponents by answering literacy questions. Its technology has since been used in healthcare research and business life, and its capabilities were made available to developers late last year. The establishment of the newly announced Watson Group is intended to further exploit the potential of super-innovation.

With a $ XNUMX billion investment, two thousand IBM experts will be employed. With three services already available, the Watson Group marks a new, cognitive era in computing.
