Carrie Fisher Leads a Support Group for Robots in "Coping With Humans" IBM Commercial
IBM's Watson is the anti-Skynet, or at least that's what they want us to believe. This clever little commercial features Carrie Fisher as a group therapist for old robots who dream of world domination. Unlike Watson, of course. IBM also features each of the robots in one on one therapy sessions detailing their bias with humans or Watson, which in turn showcase some of the virtual assistant's features. Look out for Steve Buscemi as Sinister Bot.
IBM Watson is a cognitive system that's ushering in the new era of cognitive business. Recently, a group of battered science fiction bots spoke about their yen to take over the world and their dislike for working with humans. Unlike them, Watson works with humans to outthink competitors, challenges, limits.
