I didn't verify the link, but FTA:

"Over at PBS NewsHour, science correspondent Miles O'Brien did a fun
piece where he challenged the machine to a "Jeopardy!" duel. The
segment aired last night, and is embedded above (video link /
transcript). As an aside, the piece includes often-Boinged
personalities Marvin Minsky and Ray Kurzweil, and as a bonus, includes
some wonderful old sci-fi film clips (can you ID them all?)"

where "is embedded above" points to the first link.  I simply took the
author at their word and posted.  Sorry 'bout that.
