Now this is where I see Watson being used in the future. We all take advice from our doctors, but wouldn't it be nice to get a statistical opinion on what the solution to your ailment might be? Doctor's could use Watson to get alternative opinions, options the doctor might not thought of on his own. Watson could have years of your medical records to base answers on, something a doctor might easily overlook.

Check out a couple of my other favorite videos on Watson: The Face of Watson and Building Watson: The DeepQA Project.
