IBM’s famed Watson, a computer system of artificial intelligence, has moved on from his Jeopardy winning days. Now, Watson is being put to use to rule the world of fantasy football.
Edge Up Sports, a sports analytics website, is working with IBM to create a Watson-powered fantasy football app.
The app is developed as part of the IBM Watson Ecosystem, which allows businesses to partner with IBM and access Watson’s cognitive resources.
While this new app will help one pick their fantasy football team, it will be most valuable in choosing just the right lineup week to week.
