How Google Cloud will bring AI, machine learning to enterprise software

Google has been quietly hard at work for some time now, developing its artificial intelligence and cloud capabilities to do something new. And at the Google's Cloud Next conference in March the company announced that it was developing tech to aid machine learning for enterprise business. Eric Schmidt, the chairman of Google's parent company, Alphabet, said the company had invested $30 billion into the Google Cloud Platform in order to develop its analysis and artificial intelligence capabilities for the program. The move, he said, was an effort to get into the game of big data, information Schmidt said nations would fight for. The tech giant is looking to upend its competitors, Amazon and Microsoft, who currently take the lead in artificial intelligence among customers.
