Bonsai is Bringing the BRAINs to Microsoft

Microsoft has increasingly keen on AI and has sought to commercialize the ideas its own researchers come up with. This is a strategy also employed by their main rivals Amazon and Google, as well as other big technology companies. They're planning on doing even more in this field with the acquisition of AI startup Bonsai, in order to ease the on-ramp for building AI on Microsoft. Bonsai is quite the expert at combining the power of machine teaching and deep reinforcement learning into an end-to-end platform that is accessible to data scientists, software engineers and subject matter experts. This makes Microsoft very well-positioned to lead the penetration of AI into the enterprise market.
