Hey Grape!
I believe we are quite a ways from the "matrix scenario"! But your right this is a step!
Did anyone see the show??

Just finished watching on DVR...he's good but not perfect. He's tied with another past Jeopardy champion for the lead. The competition is spread out over 3 days. I think he (Watson) will win it all.

They had a couple of episodes of NOVA Science Now about the development of the machine and how they got him to 'learn'.  They had a couple of mock run-through sessions playing the game.  Pretty cool.  I haven't watched the Jeopardy shows.

Heb 10:32  But you must continue to remember those earlier days, how after you were enlightened you endured a hard and painful struggle.

Watson basically moped the floor with them!
Ken Jennings won second place and Brad got third!
Waston won $1,000,000 for his charity
Ken $300,000
Brad $200,000
Maybe the shows will be posted on youtube soon!
