You misunderstand how Watson was created. A bunch of trivia worshiping nerds didn't organize and catalog all of its information in the way you're implying. Watson doesn't need perfectly digested raw materials to work with. Watson is able to parse natural language and pull out possibly important information. It then applies some very state-of-the-art machine learning to derive the most likely contextual meaning of that information. That contextual meaning can be cross-referenced with billions of other pieces of weighted information to derive further insights. I come from a family full of doctors. They tend to be smart people, but as Jeopardy showed, even the best player on earth is no match for a machine trained at that discipline. Once we start adding in genetic information, that will allow machines like Watson to customize diagnoses and treatments based upon your specific genetic profile.
