Ken Jennings Defeated By a Computer Named Watson
Defeat is not a word Ken Jennings is very familiar with, well, at least not until he went head to head with a computer named Watson. Jennings got trounced in the much anticipated match up of man versus machine on Jeopardy! . Watson, an IBM super computer, earned $1 million for winning which IBM says will go to charity. Jennings holds the Jeopardy! record for winning the most consecutive games.
