VIDEO: IBM's Cognitive Computer, Will Help Solve Your Health Problems

Just because you Can Collect a Lot of Information about your Health, Doesn't Mean that, you Can Easily Make Sense of it. How do you Connect the Dots between, Say, your Smartwatch and your Medical Records ? IBM Thinks it has the Answer: it's Launching, Watson Health Cloud, a Platform that Uses the Company's Cognitive Computer System to Help Companies and Doctors Make Decisions Based on Data that Might Otherwise Prove Daunting. They could Recommend a Change in your Prescription, for example, or Outline your Surgery Recovery Plans. Appropriately, IBM is Teaming Up with a Handful of Companies to Both Scoop Up More Data and Provide those All-Important Answers. If you're Using iOS Gear and the Apple Watch, the Info you Collect in HealthKit and ResearchKit Can Help Watson with Decisions; Johnson & Johnson is Helping with a Coaching System for Surgery and Medtronic is Working on Extra-Personalized Diabetes Treatment. Don't be Surprised if your Physicians Ask a Machine for Advice the Next Time you're Faced with a Complicated Health Problem.
