Artificial Intelligence - Getting Started with Microsoft AI

Software developers are quickly adopting Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies, such as natural language understanding, sentiment analysis, speech recognition, image understanding and machine learning (ML). Across a broad range of industries and sectors, AI-infused software applications and cloud services drive innovative customer experiences, augment human capabilities and transform how we live, work and play. New tools, cloud-hosted APIs and platforms make it even easier to build such applications. Modern AI applications live at the intersection of cloud computing, data platforms and AI tools. The cloud provides a powerful foundation for elastic compute and storage, while supporting special-purpose hardware such as graphics processing units (GPUs) that accelerate demanding calculations.
