Google's latest platform play is artificial intelligence, and it's already winning

The heart of this offering is Google's machine learning software TensorFlow. He says his team uses a range of machine learning frameworks to create in-house tools for tasks like categorizing customer feedback, but that TensorFlow is often a good place to start. "There are technical differences between [different AI frameworks], but machine learning communities live off community support and forums, and in that regard Google is winning," he tells The Verge. But Google didn't forget to feed the community either, and to complement these announcements unveiled new tools to help developers build AI services that work better on mobile devices.
