"Experts who have spent years researching the space told CNBC that IBM blundered by prioritizing headlines over peer-reviewed evidence. Still, there are plenty of reasons to be optimistic about the potential for machine learning to help detect patterns of disease."

I am in the process of getting my HIT credentials to get the F out of IBM and the disaster that is known as GTS. IBM with Ginni at the helm have killed this company. No glory in working for them anymore.
I agree with Anonymous... AI and machine learning are a work in progress and very limited in their ability to show any real intelligence. If I had cancer, I would run away from Watson.
LOL, machine learning and AI are a long way off, especially for things as serious as cancer.
