This Jeopardy! champion is a bit different from the rest on this list, as Watson is not even human! The IBM robot competed against the top Jeopardy! contestants in a battle of machine versus human. Watson initially won $77,147 in two special exhibition games, and later beat the top champions, winning the grand prize of $1 million. Luckily, IBM donated the prize to the World Vision and World Community Grid non-profit organizations.
