Some of the Latest Trends in Artificial Intelligence - Nanalyze

We're into our second year of publishing a "Global AI Race" series of articles on artificial intelligence startups from around the world and it continues to pose a challenge. We use an objective measure of "total funding taken in so far" and that excludes any firms that choose not to disclose funding or are bootstrapped. We search for various categorizations like "artificial intelligence" or "deep learning" and that means we'll miss any firms that haven't chosen those categories in their Crunchbase profile. But the ones we worry about the most are those firms that we might include in one of our "top AI startups" lists that don't actually do AI. It's a huge problem, and one that was highlighted recently by a European venture capital firm, MMC Ventures, that surveyed 2,830 startups in Europe that were classified as being AI companies and found out that 44% of these companies were incorrectly classified as being "AI startups."
