The whole of IBM must be beaming this morning as Watson beat out former Jeopardy champions Ken Jennings and Brad Rutter. Watson racked up a two day total of $77,147 to Ken’s $24,000. Though Watson won’t be taking a vacation anytime soon with his earnings, instead IBM will be donating the winners purse ($1 Million) to charity. See more of Watson Here.

Photonic AI Processors Report
(Buyer will receive $500 coupon, good for 90 days, toward any other JPR AIP report)
Jon Peddie Research’s Photonic AI Processors report is a supply-side report; it covers the seven companies building photonic compute processors.
The Photonic AI Processors report defines photonic AI processors and how they are used. It
outlines the two distinct product categories that exist: photonic compute processors, where
light performs the arithmetic, and photonic interconnects, where light moves data between
conventional chips and replaces copper wires.
The report also contains information about the companies in this segment and their
technology and products.
While the companies covered in the main body of this report focus on classical photonic AI acceleration (matrix multiplication, inference, HPC), a distinct set of players is building photonic quantum computers that use single photons as qubits and linear optical elements to implement quantum gates and entanglement.
