I For One Welcome Our New Computer Overlords

Ken Jennings provides us a much needed quote for the three-day man against machine Jeopardy! when he jokingly writes "I For One Welcome our New Computer Overlords" below his answer to the final jeopardy clue. With or without our welcome, Watson has arrived. It bested the best human players ever in Jeopardy! namely Ken Jennings and Brad Rutter. Watson is a harbinger of what's going to come from Big Blue: truly intelligent machine that can augment or replace human intelligence.

Civil War (2024)

This is basically a Dorothy yellow brick road kind of story.  Also, something to do with the new replaces the old, the circle of life thing....
