megan: a lot of people know watson.an you talk to us about watson and make it more real world for the people in this room to understand what they are using it for? ginni: we viewed an era where you would not program machines. they would understand reason and continue to learn, not program. everything you know today is programmable. an entire era has been programmable. this is the beginning of a new era. that, to us, is a big difference in between what we might experience and what i call consumer ai general-purpose versus business. what we set out to do is build an ai platform for business. i think it comes alive with better examples. when i say for business, there will be two big differences to consumers. one is, as an example, if you are on your phone and ask, give me the best song in 1950. you don't think about, who voted? why did they pick that song? you might say, is this the right diagnosis of this type of cancer? you want to know the data, the evidence behind it. the idea that for business ai would be vertical, me

watson is named after -- ginni: our founder, thomas watson.tson got some attention because of "jeopardy." ginni: it is funny how many people still remember that. i really give us credit, if i might, for having relit the world of ai. you asked what i did early in my career, i was an ai specialist at one time. so that would be a couple of decades ago, so it isn't like ai itself is brand-new. there are a number of things that make it different. what we did back then, it was 2011 on "jeopardy," we had been working on ai for a good five years before. this gets back to the idea if you are always moving to where you think there is value in tech, we believe there is value in this data, and you have to be prepared for this world to do it cost-effectively, and more important, you would have to have technology that did not get programmed. that is the difference with what our, that is what watson and ai is -- you don't say, if this, do that. every device you have has been programmed, if this, do that. somebody has to tell it what to do. your smart phone,

watson is exactly where we thought it would be. watson is exactly what we thought it would be.mple, and when you're a pioneer, people shoot. not deadly but they shoot. health care is an example. when we did our very first oncology teaching watson, the first was long, breast, colon cancer. it took the doctors a year. this is another key point about professional a.i. doctors do not want a black-and-white answer. nor does any profession. if you're a professional, you don't want it to say here is the answer. what a doctor wants is, ok, give me the possible answers, tell me why you believe it, can i see the research, the evidence, the percent confidence. what more would you like to know? these are really what we are doing. the first took almost a year. we are down to less than 30 days now. by the end of this year watson will have been trained on what causes 80% of the world's cancers. i find that kind of criticism out of line for what it is we are working on together with doctors. emily: ibm ceo ginni rometty. that does it for this edition of "best of bloomberg technology." we will

we have now introduced watson to that. dots of weather info, a new weather forecast recalculated across 3 billion points of earth. on the weekend with both irma and with hurricane harvey, the most recent one, we held one -- help -- held one million conversations, interactive conversations i had, on how to prepare for the hurricane. and then it was half a trillion interactions with watson to help 140 airlines reroute. these are things you learn for business that are very different when people traditionally talk about a.i. >> you have touched on the criticism that it's still too dependent on human interface. we talk about financial services, underwriting risk, the weather, they cannot than fast -- that it cannot learn fast enough and it has been not transformational enough to live up to some of the dependency both of ibm and how it's being marketed. how do you respond? ginni: ibm is an $80 billion company. when people say, "why hasn't this grown ibm by two?" that's an unrealistic expectation. it is an era, and you teach thes

some of theed on criticism of watson that has been out there.t is built dependence -- that it is still to dependence on humans. a can't learn fast enough and it hasn't been transformational enough to live up to some of the dependency both of ibm and how it is being marketed. how do you respond? ibm is an 80 billion dollar company. when they say why hasn't this grown ibm by two? that is very realistic. what's in it is exactly where we thought it would be. a great example. i think when you are a pioneer, ot.ple sho and health care i remember when we did our very first oncology long,ng watson with breast, and: cancer. i remember the first cancer, it's up the doctors a year. -- it took the doctors a year. doctors do not want a black and white answer, nor does any profession. when you interact with ai, you don't want it to say here is an answer. give me the possible answers, tommy why you believe it, can i see the research and evidence. really what we are doing. we are down to less than 30 days. by the end of this year, lots and will have been traine

carol: i found the ibm-watson stuff fascinating. they made a big bet on it.know how the business is doing, do we? megan: we don't. she said watson is right where we want it. a lot of shareholders would disagree. here is what is so fascinating, and so personal about this interview. ginni, when they look at someone like her, one of the most known female ceo's, they fully form. she is always message impasse and passionate. her father left the family when she was young. her mother had to really scramble. she has three siblings. they went on food stamps. to talks about the entitlement program, and how that shaped her -- she talks about the entitlement program, and how that shaped her in her career and not letting it really to find her. what is so interesting is a -- is her mother had cancer. when she talks about watson and a.i. -- one of the biggest areas that they have gone into is health care. this is very personal. it is very personal to her that she believes watson is helping doctors, nurses, health care providers make better decisions. carol: it is three year
