The details of the contest have not been released, but IBM has made it clear their cognitive computing technology should be far more revolutionary than that of Google or Facebook. What is known about the format of this competition is that developers will be given a lot of freedom towards their idea. The purpose isn\u2019t necessarily to overcome a series of challenges and follow guidelines, but to produce an idea that will bring Watson to the forefront of AI.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/clapway.com\/2016\/02\/18\/ibm-may-develop-better-ai-google-facebook\/\" target=\"_blank\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>IBM leads the way on AI \u2014 definitely makes sense and should given the years of research &amp; funding spent on Watson.
