AI is not "magic dust" for your company, says Google's Cloud AI boss

Andrew Moore is the new head of Google's Cloud AI business, a unit that is striving to make machine-learning tools and techniques more accessible and useful for ordinary businesses. To that end, his team announced several new tools today. These include AI Hub, a modular framework for connecting different machine-learning components, and Kubeflow Pipelines, software that makes machine-learning projects more portable. Efforts to make AI more accessible are likely to define the technology's impact. They will also prove very important to the future of companies like Google.
