I think it would be useful to link to some scientific evaluation of Watson Health.
I'd want to see:
0. A baseline measurement.
1. Comparison to the nearest compatible.
2. Comparison against a simple algorithm/expert system.
- pgodzin 9y agoThat's exactly what we do with all our pilot clients before we go into production. I'm not sure that IBM publishes these results after the pilot is done though.

- comstock 9y agoThere's obviously overlap, because people here have shown a dislike to the 60 minutes show. Overall that probably helps the brand with some groups, and harms it with others (scientists, engineers) so you may have more work to convince them, though the puff pieces might help sell it at the exec level.
