Actually, last night Watson tied with Brad. Ken Jennings was in LAST. I'm betting on Watson. ANd just because it can't "THINK" (which is also IBM's motto, how ironic.) does not mean it cannot win. About 10 years ago the same company that made Watson built a computer that beat the Chess Grandmaster of the time.

Re: A supercomputer is gonna compete in Jeopardy tonight!
So... who exactly won? I get that Watson got the Final Jeopardy question wrong, but did he lose enough to fall behind Ken or Brad?
