Upcoming IBM Watson Event

I intend to listen in on this and report on it here.  The movement of Watson to drive the AI promise of the late 1980s continues to march on.

 Hi Franz,

You have been selected to join us for a live broadcast of an IBM Watson special event Thursday, January 9, 2014 at 9:30 am ET on IBM's LinkedIn company page to learn firsthand about the next chapter in Watson's evolution.

You will hear from IBM's senior leaders about significant new actions IBM is taking to help organizations transform and meet the needs of today's changing marketplace.
