  1. I think what it shows is that being good at Jeopardy is an impressively computer-like feat for the humans who do it well. That a computer can be fairly easily designed to out computer the computer-like humans simply reinforces this notion. The real moment to bow down to our new robot overlords will be when IBM designs a computer that can out human real humans at things that are inherently human. This point is one reason why I like this article:
