Google CEO Says AI Is the Next Big Evolution for Technology

In his first letter to company shareholders, Sundar Pichai, Google CEO, said that devices will become a thing of the past, and that computing will be driven by artificial intelligence. He said that the next wave is all about machine learning. The letter outlines how the search giant plans to win with artificial intelligence. Now that Pichai is running the Mountain View Internet firm, the founders are letting him write their letter, too. Re/code noted that while the letter does not really contain anything mind-blowing or new, it reveals areas of focus for the famously unfocused tech firm.
