IBM Watson correctly diagnoses a form of leukemia
It is funny that so many are quick to dismiss this because it is IBM, so "it must be just PR" (saw a few comments here). If Google did this or Elon Musk, everyone would be singing praises and musing about a better, brighter future.<p>Which is funny because it is Google / Facebook / Microsoft which collect and hold everyone's personal details and data. For better or for worse, IBM never seemed to have gotten into that business (yet?) of recording and selling every American's data for ads.<p>In general, I think healthcare is more important than self-driving Teslas or robots making us dinner and scratching our backs. So at least they seem to have focused on the right thing.
