IBM's supercomputer Watson is ready to tackle a new challenge: helping veterans get ready for life outside of the military.
IBM has partnered with United Services Automobile Association (USAA) to offer Ask Watson, an online service that will help vets with everything from how to write the perfect résumé to applying for G.I. Bill benefits. In order to get the right information, Watson has analyzed more than 3,000 documents about transitioning from military to civilian life, Mashable reports. To take advantage of Ask Watson, USAA members just have to log on to the company's website.
