IBM is using Watson’s vast analytical abilities for… fantasy football?

Despite its potential to revolutionize a number of industries, many of Watson’s achievements have been nothing more than a pretty cool, somewhat interesting way to use an artificial intelligence, such as playing Jeopardy or telling people if their emails sound too aggressive. IBM’s most recent Watson expansion falls in the category as well, as the company is looking to help people succeed at… fantasy football. I’m not even all that surprised, this is America after all.
