AI-powered IBM Watson to help Indian enterprises go digital

The year 2017 is predicted to be that of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and machine learning -- redefining the way humans communicate with devices to not only improve daily life but also boost businesses, even in India. To make this happen, here comes IBM Watson -- a cognitive system enabling a new partnership between people and computers. Named after IBM founder Thomas J. Watson, the supercomputer combines AI and analytical software for optimal performance as a "question answering" machine that thinks like a human. For IBM, cognitive is digital business plus digital intelligence. With Watson, people can analyse and interpret all of their data, including unstructured text, images, audio and video.
