Are we in the A.I. revolution? Microsoft's keynote points to huge change

Microsoft's annual Build conference for developers kicked off the week starting with a keynote provided by CEO Satya Nadella. He didn't reveal any new Windows 10 hardware, but instead focused his presentation on solutions spanning from the intelligent cloud to the intelligent edge, the latter of which simply classifies everything we use ranging from smart thermostats to HoloLens in the corporate environment. He began the keynote emphasizing how artificial intelligence is changing the world, drawing parallels to the Industrial Revolution where, in a span of 20 years, the nation moved from horse-drawn engines to automobiles. The core technologies of the Industrial Revolution were essentially invisible: the combustion engines in cars, plumbing in buildings, the installment on electrical systems for lighting, and so on. Artificial intelligence and the cloud are just as revolutionary and invisible. One example is Microsoft's new partnership with civilian drone manufacturer DJI.
