This time last week the IBM World of Watson conference was happening in Las Vegas! It came to my attention because it was trending on Twitter and at Sibos 2016 Ginni Rometty (IBM CEO) gave an interesting keynote which i coincidentally recapped last week. Anyway, it got me thinking Las Vegas – what a cool place to host and attend a conference!! Clearly the conference covered all things cognitive, but i was curious to understand what the Wold of Watson attendees were tweeting about – and in this post i have highlighted 10 pretty interesting tweets:

5. Data + Analytics:
