Watson, the Jeopardy-winning supercomputer
developed by IBM, could become a cloud-based service that people can
consult on a wide range of issues, IBM announced yesterday.
In addition to improving Watson's machine-learning capabilities to
increase the range of options the system gives clinicians - including
nuancing these to cater for patient preferences, such as choosing
chemotherapy that does not cause hair loss, for instance - the race is
now on at IBM to make the system far more widely available.
"Watson is going to be an advisor and an assistant to all kinds of
professional decision-makers, starting in healthcare and then moving
beyond. We're already looking at a role for Watson in financial services
and in other applications," says John Gordon, Watson Solutions
Marketing Manager at IBM in New York.
