Smart machines : IBM's Watson and the era of cognitive computing / John E. Kelly III, Steve Hamm. - x, 147 pages ; 22 cm
Includes bibliographical references (pages 141-147).
A new era of computing -- Building learning systems -- Handling big data -- Augmenting our senses -- Designing data-centric computers -- Inventing a new physics of computing -- Imagining the cognitive city.
We are entering a new frontier in the evolution of computing: the era of cognitive systems. The victory of IBM's Watson on the television quiz show Jeopardy! signaled the advent of this new era, revealing how scientists and engineers at IBM and elsewhere are pushing the boundaries of science and technology to create machines that sense, learn, reason, and interact with people in new ways. John E. Kelly III and Steve Hamm introduce the fascinating world of 'cognitive systems' to general audiences and provide a window into the future of computing.
