As a person who played Quiz Bowl in high school, it was pretty apparent that it was domain that would be mastered by AI in time. Answering questions correctly was often a function of how much material you had studied and were able to recall. I get the feeling that the computer might have a slight advantage at pure recall but a disadvantage at associative recall. Even so, the sheer speed of computation from the computer far outpaces a human's ability to slam down on a buzzer. On an unrelated note, this is beginning to more closely resemble the prophetic computers characteristic of Asimov stories.
