First an AI wrote a screenplay, now IBM Watson has helped create a movie trailer. Film editors from 20th Century Fox have teamed up with IBM's AI system to create the trailer for the studio's upcoming film Morgan. Fittingly, Morgan is a sci-fi/horror movie about scientists who create an artificial humanoid whose powers grow out of control. According to IBM, trailers can be expensive and time-consuming to make, taking teams of people up to 30 days to complete. With the help of Watson APIs, IBM was able to cut that process down to one day, creating the first so-called "cognitive movie trailer".

IBM unveils their latest innovations and shows us how Watson helps the U.S. Open Sara Snyder, USA TODAY NEW YORK--The computer that famously became a Jeopardy champ a few years ago isn't about to take on top seeded tennis superstar Serena Williams. But off the court, IBM Watson is making its presence felt at the Billie Jean King National Tennis Center in Flushing Meadows, Queens, home to the U.S. Open Tennis Championships that began this week. IBM has collaborated with the United State Tennis Association on technology for more than a quarter-century, but Watson, IBM's self-proclaimed cognitive computer, is a newbie at the Open. IBM is leveraging Watson's machine learning smarts and cloud-based analytics to try and bolster the fan experience during the tournament--while simultaneously raising Watson's profile. IBM of course is not the only company with a vested interest in artificial intelligence, and the field has become a hotbed of activity.

Say what you will, but IBM Watson is one resourceful supercomputer. We've previously seen the AI describe the contents of photos, predict the most popular toys during Christmas season and gauge your emotional state – all of that with an exceptional accuracy. Now IBM Watson has added yet another skill to its arsenal as it just learned how to make movie trailers. Earlier this week, 20th Century Fox trusted the supercomputer with the task to create the trailer for its upcoming sci-fi drama Morgan. With this accomplishment, IBM Watson becomes the first-ever AI to produce a movie trailer.

Weather Underground makes weather forecasts based on 8,000 public and 192,000 privately constructed weather stations across 195 countries. The company is adding 400 new stations across Asia, South America, and Africa, and it'll be integrating all of them with IBM's Watson language-learning AI (the one that played Jeopardy! So what exactly does this mean? It is creating a global weather forecast system tied into a number of worldwide businesses, and with that, a hope to outmaneuver one of the most costly, damaging variables in global industry--weather. When IBM bought The Weather Company/WU last October it immediately announced its intention to merge WU's 200,000 weather stations with Watson through the Internet of Things.

There's plenty to do in Orlando, Florida besides infect yourself with Zika -- what with Universal Studios, Disney World, the Epcot Center and SeaWorld. And a new app, backed by the supercomputing power of IBM's Watson, will tell you how to get the most out of every one of your minutes in the Sunshine State. The Visit Orlando app is designed to help visitors figure out what they want to do while in the city. Users can ask the app virtually any question within reason and receive helpful travel and booking tips in reply. Want to eat somewhere with live music?

We live in a world where artificial intelligence isn't science fiction -- it's reality. And, as Alex Konrad of Forbes previously reported, IBM Watson General Manager David Kenny is currently striving to make sure that AI becomes a "service" soon. Watson is IBM's artificially intelligent supercomputer (not to mention a Jeopardy champion). According to Forbes, IBM and Kenny expect Watson to expand into a 10 billion business within the next ten years. We're thrilled to announce that Kenny will be speaking about how AI is fueling the next massive wave of digital disruption and innovation at IGNITION 2016, Business Insider's flagship annual conference.

NEW YORK (Reuters) – IBM is in an unusual fix in telling big U.S. banks they can use its Watson software of Jeopardy-winning fame as a cost-saving solution: bankers say they like it, but cannot afford it. IBM is in good company. Banks are in the fifth year of their belt-tightening campaigns that began in 2011, chasing billions of dollars' worth of savings, and vendors that offer everything from technology to janitorial services are getting squeezed. With persistently low interest rates hurting revenue and businesses like bond trading hemmed in by new regulations, few on Wall Street expect the austerity to end any time soon. For IBM the irony lies in the fact that senior bank executives say they believe its artificial intelligence software could help them achieve cost-cutting goals in coming years, but are not ready to pay for Watson today.
