IBM: Response to RFI

IBM has been researching, developing and investing in AI technology for more than 50 years. The public became aware of a major advance in 2011, when IBM Watson won the historic Jeopardy! Since that time, the company has advanced and scaled the Watson platform, and applied it to various industries, including healthcare, finance, commerce, education, security, and the Internet of Things. We are deeply committed to this technology, and believe strongly in its potential to benefit society, as well as transform our personal and professional lives. To this end, we have engaged thousands of scientists and engineers from IBM Research and Development, and partnered with our clients, academics, external experts, and even our competitors to explore all topics around AI.
