Now, the very same IBM-made machine has lost out to a human champion debater from London.
The topic of the debate was whether or not preschools should be subsidized.
Project Debater argued in favor of subsidized preschool while Natarajan argued against it.
Before the debate, 79% of the audience agreed that preschool should be subsidized while 13% disagreed.
The debate on pre-school subsidies lasted for 25 minutes.
By the end of the debate, 62% of the crowd agreed and 30% disagreed.
AIs answers came from its database of 10 billion sentences taken from journal and newspaper articles.
Its not a question of one being better than the other, but about AI and humans working together.
