Google makes it easier to incorporate machine learning into mobile apps ZDNet

Google on Tuesday is rolling out a new tool that makes it easier for mobile developers to incorporate machine learning into their apps. Google and Microsoft outline their roadmaps and advances for developers. Don't be surprised if the two tech giants' AI-infused visions rhyme. The launch of the machine learning SDK -- called ML Kit -- comes on the first day of the annual Google I/O conference, where the tech giant is once again stressing that AI is at the core of its business. "ML Kit is our way to bring a lot of Google's machine learning technologies that we've developed over many years into a single, easy-to-use package," Brahim Elbouchikhi, Google's ML lead for Android, said to ZDNet.
