IBM implants Blockchain in artificial intelligence

IBM which has created Watson supercomputer has undertaken something absolutely kryshelomny: the company has decided to hire five thousand hotheads in Singapore that they have united cognitive system with blokcheyny. Only to ponder how many meanings in the phrase "Watson and Blokcheyn"! If have pondered, but have provided nothing, let's understand that all this means.

Blokcheyn is a chain of blocks with information on transfer of values, whether it be cryptocurrency or the rights to real estate. The essence of technology is that any transaction is visible to all participants of a network thanks to what it cannot be distorted or erased.

The system excludes from scenarios of interaction of all intermediaries working at what contract parties each other do not trust. Why to us the notary or the realtor if we register terms of the contract, and the system will see and will keep all our actions.

IBM Watson – at least interesting piece. It is the cognitive system capable to understand questions in a natural language, to analyze arrays of information and to samoobuchatsya. On its basis services and applications which sense in relieving the person of the solution of a huge number of problems are developed, up to connected with life and health.

In medicine – this predicting of epidemics and emergence of the centers of natural disasters, the analysis of occupational health at the entity, statement of the diagnosis, an assessment of a state of health and matching of therapy.In life – it is the assistant in the organizations of a day regimen, the analyzer of quality of a dream and food, and also the translator of oral speech giving at the exit an audioflow in the chosen language. And a lot of things still.

Watson is the cornerstone of more than 50 technologies – and here want to attach to them блокчейн.

How to combine that and another

We will not be fair if we tell that we know about specific plans of Watson Centre: authors of the project do not tell about the expected results yet, but promise that they will change a way of life to unrecognizability. Considering some deficit of information, but knowing about options of implementation of a blokcheyn, we can include imagination and finish a puzzle independently.

According to the specialist in the field of difficult systems Maxim Orlovsky, Blokcheyn acts as algorithm of achievement of consent in system with several agents. Carriers of artificial intelligence shall communicate and equally interpret it, and Blokcheyn carries out function of language here. By analogy with the people nominating objects and the phenomena to understand each other: "it is a fork", "it is blue color", etc.

If to go down to the level of applied things, then the first that comes to mind, is a reliable storage and data transmission without misstatements that enters the main tasks of a blokcheyn. So, in medicine as one of the main spheres to which IBM Watson is oriented confidentiality and safety of information is very important. Records in the blokcheena will not be lost as the medical card in a polyclinic, and will read the clinical record any doctor (in case of IBM – artificial intelligence).

What will turn out at Watson Centre – we will look in several months. However before start of the first products of IBM of m
