What is the artificial

intelligence?
Artificial intelligence (AI, also machine intelligence, MI)
is Intelligence displayed by machines, in contrast with
the natural intelligence (NI) displayed by humans and
other animals. In computer science AI research is defined
as the study of "intelligent agents": any device that
perceives its environment and takes actions that
maximize its chance of success at some goal. Colloquially,
the term "artificial intelligence" is applied when a
machine mimics "cognitive" functions that humans
associate with other human minds, such as "learning"
and "problem solving".
In the twenty-first century, AI techniques have
experienced a resurgence following concurrent advances
in computer power, large amounts of data, and
theoretical understanding; and AI techniques have
become an essential part of the technology industry,
helping to solve many challenging problems in computer
science.

Google
Google is an American multinational technology
company that specializes in Internet related services and
products. These include online advertising technologies,
search, cloud, computing, software, and hardware
Artificial intelligence at google
The technology of AI has become inevitable in the recent
period, where many of the technology companies relied
heavily on them in the recent
period, where Google comes at
the head of these companies,
which relied on artificial
intelligence technology in all its
various areas, including the field of games Or search
results or even writing in newspapers
Google finances an informational site based
on AI technology
A report that Google is funding a project that will use AI
to write news automatically, which is known as RADAR
and allows AI to write stories, while one expert said it is
unlikely to replace traditional reports, while RADAR Using
AI to expand the size of local stories that would be
impossible to provide manually.

Google has more than 1,000 projects in AI field.

Deep learning technology refers to a kind of AI that enables
software to train itself to perform tasks, like speech and image
recognition. Google launched its deep learning project Google
Brain in 2011, and in 2014 it bought DeepMind, a pioneering
reinforcement learning program thats been sharing AI
landmarks in gameplay this year.
One of these great projects in DeepMind is AlphaGo.
AlphaGo: its the first
computer program to
defeat a professional
human Go player, the
first program to defeat
a Go world champion,
and arguably the
strongest Go player in
history. These are the
statistics of AlphaGo
In 3 hours AlphaGo Zero plays like a human
beginner, forgoing long term strategy to focus on
greedily capturing as many stones as possible.
In 19 hours AlphaGo has learnt the fundamentals of
more advanced Go strategies.
In 70 hours AlphaGo plays at super-human level and
defeated world champion Lee Sedol.

Intel
It is an American multination corporation and technology
company headquartered in Santa Clara, California. The
computer in modern data centers and the engine rooms
of digital economy are powered mainly by Intel chips.
Making Artificial Intelligence Accessible to All
Intel India trains 9,500 people in AI technology. Intel has
invested more than $1 billion in AI companies. Intel has
lagged graphics chip (GPU) maker Nvidia in the artificial
intelligence revolution. Today Intel announced that its
first AI chip, the Nervana Neural Network Processor, will
roll out of factories by years end. Originally called Lake
Crest, the chip gets its name from Nervana, a company
Intel purchased in August 2016, taking on the CEO,
Naveen Rao, as Intels AI guru. Today, isolated data stores,
complex tools, and a small talent pool limit access to AI. In
response, Intel has committed to democratize AI innovation,
leading the charge for open data exchanges and initiatives. The
Intel Nervana AI Academy program was created to increase
accessibility to data, tools, training, and intelligent machines.

New Chip to revolutionize AI, the Intel Nervana Neural

Network Processor is the industrys first chip designed
from the ground up to be
an AI powerhouse for
broad enterprise
adoption. Using Intel
Nervana technology,
companies will be able to
develop entirely new
classes of AI applications that maximize the amount of d
data processed and enable customers to find greater
insights. The scientist Naveen Rao (the CEO of Nervana
systems) says The goal of this new architecture is to
provide the needed flexibility to support all deep learning
primitives while making core hardware components as
efficient as possible. And these are some of the
advantages of the Intel Nervana Neural Network Processor

Apple Company
Apple is serious about artificial intelligence. As research
teams at Google, Microsoft, Facebook, IBM, and even
Amazon have broken new ground in artificial intelligence
in recent years, Apple always seemed to be the odd man
out. It was too closed off to meaningfully integrate AI
into the companys software it wasnt a part of the
research community, and didnt have
developer tools available for others to bring
AI to its systems. Thats changing. Through a
slew of updates and announcements today
at its annual developer conference, apple
made it clear that the machine learning found
everywhere else in Silicon Valley is foundational to its
software as well, and its giving developers the power to
use AI in their own iOS apps as well.
Apple launches machine learning
Machine Learning is a type of program
that gives a response to input without
having been explicitly programmed with
the knowledge. Instead, it is trained by
being presented with a set of inputs and
the desired response. From these, the
program learns to judge a new input.
8
This is different from earlier Knowledge Based Systems.

These were explicitly programmed. For example, in a
simple wine program I developed for a class, there were
a long list of rules, essentially of the form:
IF (type = RED) AND (acidity = LOW) THEN respond with XXX
IF (type = RED) AND (acidity = HIGH) THEN respond with ZZZ
In a ML system, these rules do not exist. Instead a set of
samples are presented and the system learns how to
infer the correct responses.
Artificial Intelligence on IOS
Apple made it clear that every
action taken on the phone is
logged and analyzed by a
symphony of machine-learning
algorithms in the operating
system, whether its predicting
when you want to make a calendar appointment, call a
friend, or make a better Live Photo. The switch to
machine learning can be seen in the voice of Siri. Rather
than using the standard, pre-recorded answers that
Apple has always relied on, Siris voice is now entirely
generated by AI. It allows for more flexibility, its a more
personalized and proactive version of Siri, and one that
might show up in other Apple OSs and devices.

IBM Watson
Watson is the AI platform for business
IBM says Artificial Intelligence (AI) has a long history at
IBM Research, dating back to the 1950s. By AI we mean
anything that makes machines act more intelligently. Our
work includes basic and applied research in machine
learning, deep question answering, search and planning,
knowledge representation, and cognitive architectures.
IBM is one such company to use AI, to
make human brain. In 2015, IBM made a
strong push to add deep learning
capabilities to Watson, adding speech
recognition and image recognition to its BlueMix
platform in February. That March, IBM acquired
AlchemyAPI, a startup specializing in deep learning based
text and image analysis. The company says it serves
40,000 developers and handles three billion API calls per
month.
IBM Just Committed $240 Million to the Future of
Artificial Intelligence.
IBM-MIT AI
IBM is officially partnering with
the Massachusetts Institute of
10
Technology (MIT) to run an artificial intelligence

(AI) research lab. This Watson-branded joint MIT-IBM AI
research initiative a partnership of acronyms will be
funded through a 10-year, $240 million investment from
IBM and will be co-located at IBMs Research Labin
Cambridge and at the MIT campus.
According to an IBM press release, the MIT-IBM Watson
AI Lab will be one the largest long-term AI collaborations
between a university and a member of the tech industry.

Facebook
Facebook is an American for-profit corporation and an
online social media and
social networking service
based in Menlo Park,
California. The Facebook
website was launched on
February 4, 2004, by
Mark Zuckerberg, along
with fellow Harvard college students and roommates,
Eduardo Saverinm, Andrew McCollum, Dustin Moskovitz,
and Chris Hughes.
Artificial intelligence at Facebook
Facebook reveals the artificial intelligence capabilities it
has in producing images: A team of researchers on
Facebook revealed some of the artificial intelligence
capabilities developed by the company for future use in
some of its services, including its largest social network
on the Internet. The researchers on Facebook for a study
done by one of the mechanisms of AI in the company in
the production of photographs close to real images by a
large proportion. Artificial intelligence requires only one
image analysis to be able to produce dozens of images of
the same elements in the picture.
12
"One of the artificial intelligence projects we are

developing, called LAPGAN (Laplacian Generative
adversarial Networks), has succeeded in producing
photographs that have deceived a large proportion of
people, which they considered to be true images," the
researchers said. The study found that 40 percent of the
people involved in analyzing the LAPGAN project did not
succeed in distinguishing between 64 x 64 pixel
photographs produced by the artificial intelligence
mechanism and actual images of the same scene. The
artificial intelligence mechanism currently under
development in Facebook works in two stages:
Produce a picture of the real image based on a random
object using one of its artificial neural networks, while
another network analyzes the resulting image and works
to improve it to become an approach to the truth.
Facebook did not disclose any of the services that would
use the artificial intelligence mechanism. Twitter, one of
Facebook's most famous competitors, acquired Whetlab
a few days ago to develop artificial intelligence
mechanisms and techniques.

AMAZON
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the field of computer science
dedicated to solving cognitive
problems commonly
associated with human
intelligence, such as learning,
problem solving, and pattern
recognition. Amazon is
improving the artificial intelligence and machine learning
capabilities of its popular cloud services in order to
better compete with rival services
from Google and Microsoft. Amazon is considered one of
the best leading companies in AI (Artificial Intelligence)

AIBrain
AIBrain: Pioneering the AI Revolution with its Full
Autonomy
AIBrain is an artificial intelligence company
with the goal of building fully autonomous
AI by unifying the three essential aspects of
intelligence, namely Problem Solving,
Learning and Memory. AIBrain, was founded by Dr.
Richard H. Shinn in Seoul, Korea in 1997 and expanded to
Palo Alto, California in 2012 and then to Shenzhen, China
in 2017. Building a human-like artificial intelligence is an
ultimate human dream. After Richard Hong Shinn
completed his PhD thesis A Unified Approach to
Analogical Reasoning in 1989, he founded AIBrain Asia.
in July 1997 in Seoul, Korea. The company has continued
its efforts toward building a true AI through creating: An
open architecture-based robot software called intelligent
robot software platform (IRSP), sponsored by the 10 year
government initiative on the intelligent robotics from
April 1, 2003 Until March 31, 2013. It is an intelligent
robot building software for developers at all levels. The
most important characteristics of IRSP are its capabilities
of integration and support of intelligence. A robot system
16
is complex, made of hundreds of hardware devices and

software components. Thus, the integrability of many
devices and components along horizontal and vertical
dimensions is critical to its success. Dr. Shinn founded his
second company, CrossCert, as a global certification
authority, in March 1999, and acquired the investment
around US$20 million in the year of 2000 from the
companies including SoftBank and VeriSign, and Never. It
went IPO in Korean Stock Market, KOSDAQ (acronym of
Korean Securities Dealers Automated Quotations) in
November 2010. CrossCert has been growing steadily for
the past 10 years in both revenue and profit with its
current market cap around $200 million. After
CrossCerts successful IPO, Richard came back to the US
to expand his AI Company to a global scale in the Fall of
2011. The US Company, AIBrain, Inc. was founded in Palo
Alto, California, on February 17, 2012. AIBrain Asia based
in Seoul, Korea, covers the Asian market including China,
Japan and Korea, while the US company, AIBrain
company, focuses on the US and Europe. AIBrain is the
home for brilliant minds with the vision to create a
practical true AI. The Company says we are a step
closer to realize our goal, and through a series of
quantum leaps we believe it will lead to a
practical version close to true AI. Its unofficial slogan is
Be intelligent in every aspects

CloudMinds Company
CloudMinds is developing what it calls cloud intelligence-
based systems for robots. CI is different from AI in that it
combines machines with humans rather than treating
them as separate entities. This allows the robot to be
controlled by human beings. Its founder Bill Huang
Beijing, China, San Francisco, California
Products: Cloud connected smart
machines, DATA, META, Mobile-
intranet Cloud Service, XaaS Cloud and
VBN (Virtual Backbone Network)
CLOUD CONNECTED SMART MACHINES
Great advances are being made in artificial intelligence
(AI) and robotics. We are building artificial brains, eyes,
ears, legs, arms, and hands. The benchmark for
intelligence is the human being. There is no technology
to enable human-like
intelligence within a humanoid
robot. The physical dimensions
do not work. While an average
human brain weighs less than
1.5 kg (3.5 pounds), the silicon
20
alone for an artificial brain would weigh over one

thousand tons!
AI of human capacity is being developed and can be
provided in the cloud. Distribution of processing is one
key enabler. Mobile communications are only possible
with cellular networks. Intelligent robots are only
possible in the cloud. CloudMinds is creating advanced AI
engines in the cloud.

patented mobile location technology has received
multiple awards. Damiens passion for problem solving is
at the hallmark of everything he does. He has put his
talents to use in some vastly varied disciplines. In
addition to being a four-time entrepreneur, he served in
Desert Storm, was the Chief Mechanic of a top NASCAR
team and a crime scene investigator, while working full
time in the role of COO for a technology company. It has
22
51,100 employees. Banjo was conceived as a result of a

missed connection at Bostons Logan Airport. Founder
Damien Patton didnt realize that his friend, a fellow
soldier from Desert Storm, was also in the airport
despite their being mere feet from each other. Damien
vowed to figure out a way of ensuring people were up to
date with news and information, as well as location. So,
he designed an app at the intersection of social media
and location that would ensure you never missed out on
the people you care about. Winning a Google hackathon
soon after gave Damien the funding and momentum to
make Banjo a reality. He moved to Silicon Valley and
created Banjo in 2010. In 2013, Banjo opened a second
office in Las Vegas, NV. Raising over $100 million last
year, Banjo makes use of artificial intelligence to comb
through social media and identify real-time events and
situations that are important to its partners. The startup
was developed after the Boston Marathon bombing in
2013 as a way for companies to analyze social media to
make better decisions, move faster, and change the way
they understand and interact with people all over the
world. It is The Most Important Social Media Company
Youve Never Heard Of.
