I&#x27;ve asked many IBM employees to explain to me what Watson actually does (like for real, not the marketing BS that&#x27;s on TV) that would make me want to buy it. Nobody could explain it. Literally some where just like &quot;yeah, I think they&#x27;re still trying to figure out how they can make a product out of it.&quot;<p>The Jeopardy thing was cool but since then it&#x27;s turned into this mystery black box that will supposedly solve all your problems, but nobody&#x27;s can seem to point to any real successes that would matter to a business. Honestly it seems mostly like marketing fluff built on some midly proprietary distributed computing technology.
