The past decade has brought about a multitude of advancements in computers and software development including IBM's unveiling of Watson. Watson, in the words of IBM, is a "technology platform that uses natural language processing and machine learning to reveal insights from large amounts of unstructured data." In simple terms, it's a giant search engine that learns from trial and error, using key terms that are relevant to the search criteria in order to deliver the best suitable answer. This enables Watson to swiftly search through vast amounts of unstructured data which, according to IBM, is eighty percent of all data. This is possible because of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning.
