Deep Blue Jeopardy

Big Blue does it again: built a super computer and let's see if we can beat Jeopardy enthusiasts!

Ok, as an AI enthusiast, this is of course very impressive. To use a computer to search for interesting bits of knowledge, that is not that difficult, but creating an algorithm (or in this case: a stack of algorithms) that is able to play along a real Jeopardy episode (in Dutch, we call it Waagstuk), that is a big challenge.
