We do tax them, just like any other machinery or equipment. Manufacturer pays tax, then there is a sales tax. All of the electricity they use is paid to the power company. Repair men are paid and also pay tax, and those that manufacture replacement parts, etc.
IBM Watson is working for Wimbeldon to create video clips based on any question (foot faults, points at net, etc). That is replacing video editors who used to do this.
IBM Watson is replacing salesmen for Northface, Staples, and Macy's. It can find what you want / need. GM is using it in cars to personalize service for the driver. Healthcare providers are doing the same. American Cancer society is using it as an advisor to people who call in with questions. A marketing firm is using Watson to design social media campaigns. Other companies are using Watson to make ads interactive. In England they are using Watson to predict crime. Citibank uses Watson for data analysis and customer service.
