Final Jeopardy : man vs. machine and the quest to know everything / Stephen Baker. by Baker, Stephen, 1955 November 15- Boston : Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, 2011. Subjects Jeopardy! (Television program)   Natural language processing (Computer science)   Semantic computing.   Artificial intelligence.   Database management.   Watson (Computer) ISBN:  9780547483160 (hbk.) : 0547483163 (hbk.) Description:  268 p. ; 22 cm. Requests:  0 Summary:  Researchers at IBM launched a billion-dollar project to develop a machine that could compete in the quiz show Jeopardy--and win. The machine faced off in a high-ratings match against two former champions, Ken Jennings and Brad Rutter. Journalist Stephen Baker carries readers on a captivating journey from the IBM labs to the showdown in Hollywood. The story features brilliant Ph.D.s, Hollywood moguls, knowledge-obsessed Jeopardy masters--and a very special collection of silicon and circuitry named Watson. It was a classic match of Man vs. Machine, not seen since the chess-playing computer Deep Blue bested the world's reigning grandmaster, Garry Kasparov. And Watson needed to do more than churn through chess moves or find a relevant Web page--it had to understand language, including puns and irony, and master everything from history and literature to science, arts, and entertainment.--Adapted from publisher description.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Business, Science & Technology 006.3 Ba Checked In Add Copy to MyList
