PITTSBURGH (November 5, 2018) ... Expectations for artificial intelligences are very real and very high. An analysis in Forbes projects revenues from A.I. will skyrocket from $1.62 billion in 2018 to $31.2 billion in 2025. The report also included a survey revealing 84 percent of enterprises believe investing in A.I. will lead to competitive advantages. "It is exciting to see the tremendous successes and progress made in recent years," says Daniel Jiang, assistant professor of industrial engineering at the University of Pittsburgh Swanson School of Engineering.
