They should teach him (it) to play TF2. People will accuse him of aimbotting and every time a server bans him he will shed a little robot tear, eventual building to such a passion that he will begin the robot revolution.

Actually Watson's hardware isn't all that impressive. The algorithm it uses to solve Jeopardy questions, on the other hand, is quite impressive.

They had a special showing of the Jeopardy episodes here at RPI at EMPAC, where some RPI graduates who work at IBM were answering questions. Ars Technica was there :3
