Google for help if you want a hand on artificial intelligence, machine learning

SAN FRANCISCO: Machine learning and AI-based startups can Google for help as the search giant launches its Google Developers Launchpad Studio Accelerator Programme for startups to build and scale their products across the globe. The accelerator programme is targeting startups in all global markets, including India, as well as homegrown players in the US. The length of the programme is still being worked out. "In the past four years (of Google Launchpad Accelerator), we have learned a lot while supporting early and late-stage founders," said Roy Glasberg, the global lead at Google Developers Launchpad. "While working with startups on innovative solutions, such as applying artificial intelligence to solve transportation problems in Israel, improving tele-medicine in Brazil and optimising online retail in India, we have learned that these firms require specialised services," Glasberg said.
