Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella On The Extraordinary Potential Of AI

With AI, "It's not just having the technology" but also "the deployed solution," says Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella. He now runs his own firm, Evans Strategic Communications LLC.) CLOUD WARS -- As the AI Age takes hold, Microsoft has unleashed an AI strategy that's as complete and ambitious as any you'll find from any company in the world. It's already in place in fast-food restaurants and in manufacturing plants, and Microsoft is ahead of everyone in extending and unifying AI's capabilities from the cloud to the edge. But that enormous potential won't be realized unless AI takes its proper place within the ever-widening set of Azure-centered technologies and services within the Microsoft portfolio. "AI is going to be one of the trends that is going to be the next big shift in technology," Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella said at a recent investor's conference.
