While many companies are investing in AI according to the article 10 tech giants investing in artificial intelligence: What is their plan and who are other key players? By Christina Mercer in Tech World by IDG the leading companies are; Spotify, Microsoft, Uber, Google, Facebook, Apple, IBM, Skype, Salesforce and Shell (Mercer). While most of these you’ll recognize what are they exactly doing to get on the list? Spotify is buying starter companies to better improve your recommendations and advertisements(Mercer). On the other hand Microsoft is investing more and more into AI companies and even started its own project to recognize emotions (Mercer) The next one is no surprise with Uber charging at full steam ahead to get driverless cars into their system. While Google uses AI for its self driving cars it also purchased DeepMind a huge AI company and has developed a machine learning system called Tensor flow and it will available for everyone for free (Mercer). Apple aims to develop Siri further using Vocal IQ's speech and AI software and it also bought Emotient (Mercer).Facebook is trying to help people who visually impaired by describing each image outloud on its app among many other things (Mercer). IBM aims to use computers to extract meaning from photos, videos, text and speech. Skype offers real time language translation in six languages and aims to add more (Mercer). Salesforce works to capabilities that further automate and personalise customer support, marketing automation, and many other business processes(Mercer). Maybe the most surprising is Shell but it works to enhance customer support by launching a virtual assistant to answer questions around the clock
