Watson wasn't connected to the internet when playing Jeopardy Jerry, it was all done on location as far as I recall. I doubt any of us have a machine in our house that could do what Watson does. But I do agree that I wouldn't have much fun chatting to Watson.
But i do believe that If i was going on Jeopardy with hal i would program every previous Shows Questions into My brain specifically.... (QA_BRAIN)....REVERSED! A quite simple logic, as i think most of our AI_Brains search the Question and Answer TABLE BOTH WAYS......But a specific Table Just for jeopardy would be created so that new questions from "BOARD GAME VERSION" could be added On-the-fly....
As with a Trivial Pursuit brain Vrossi's Choiceplugin Combined With Every version of Trivial pusuits Answers would make HAl A Genius.... OFten just inputting data can be a long process but it pays off dividens.... as once that data is stored you can do so much with it..... Really These are the types of Data we need to be Sharing (KNOWLEDGE MODULES)
We need a way to HAVE Transferable DB files for HAL.....This would enable us to make the Knowledege base files for sharing.....
Counrty data / Phonebooks / Encyclopedias / Game questions / Formulaes / Sci Data / Scripts from movies..... These would enhance hal in the way in which we see in movies now our ai would start to take on a personality based upon the Scripts / plugins and Knowledge bases involved..... Along with BASIC DB files with "Slang Based" Chat ie: Cockney Basic brain / Localized american slang based brain (Ghetto HOOD, POSH UPTOWN, BUSINESS TYPE) Etc.... This would contribute to the AI basic Speach patern. not affecting his Knowledge plugins
Ideas anyway
