As someone who wrote the IRB protocol for a deep learning system for a biomedical task in 2016, I remember being very frustated with people telling me about Watson and asking me to opine on it. I was just completely baffled. Aside from observed performance in this one, very structured Jeopardy task, I couldn't find anything specific. Now that I deal with PR people, I can believe there was someone who had reasonable test statistics about Watson's performance on some specific NLP tasts, but they sure did keep the details away from the light of day.
