IBM Watson project and the Bitcoin blockchain are two new technologies that might change the way we live and work in the near future.
Today
tech giant IBM opened a new incubator with 5,000 computer technicians that aim at creating several prototypes by using the
IBM Watson AI tools and the Bitcoin Blockchain.
This innovative environment is called the
Watson Centre and it is situated in the Marina Bay in Singapore and in the IBM Garage, specialized in developing blockchain applications thanks to the IBM Open Standards tools within the Global Entrepreneur program that was launched back in 2010.
Randy Walker, CEO at IBM for the Asian zone, explained this project with these words:
“Watson and blockchain are two technologies that will rapidly change the way we live and work, and our clients in Asia Pacific are eager to lead the way in envisioning and creating that future.”
