The survivors of the AI investment downturn
In line with the current state of capital markets, funding for artificial intelligence continues to slow, according to the latest quarterly State of AI report published by CB Insights. Total funding in AI startups is down 31 percent since last quarter and at its lowest since Q3 2020. Mega funding rounds ($100M) are down 39 percent quarter over quarter and at a nine-quarter low. While the stagnation in AI funding will slow down the field, it is also forcing investors to focus more on AI initiatives that are more likely to reach a sustainable business model. A better look at the companies that are getting funding gives a sense of where the industry might be headed in the next few months.

The Data and AI landscape 2021: It a MAD, MAD, MAD world
While much of the world closed down during the COVID-19 pandemic, the gates opened wide for financing early and late-stage startups in the data and AI space. A team at FirstMark Capital, led by partner Matt Turck, has issued the latest of its annual encyclopedic data and AI landscapes. At one end of the spectrum, Turck and colleagues wrote, there is the maturation as evidenced by the breakout IPOs of Snowflake and Confluent, reassuring the VC community that revenues and growth are real and that the onrush of funding is not triggering a replay of the dot com bubble. And yes, the report states that the promise of AI is now being borne out. We're seeing it crop up, not only in the tools that business analysts use like BI but also the fact that in-database machine learning is becoming a checkbox feature, not to mention that Oracle, SAP, Salesforce and others are now routinely incorporating machine learning into enterprise applications.

AI Against AI - Blog - Connected World
What comes to mind when you think of deepfakes? A report by CB Insights got me thinking the other day about deepfakes and their impact on AI (artificial intelligence), quantum, and more. In case you didn't know, deepfakes combine the expressions deep learning and fake and artificial intelligence; and that's what we're talking about with next-gen hack tactics using AI. There are a lot of market numbers about AI-as-a-Service market, AI in financial services, AI in the medical sector, AI in the automotive market, AI in marketing, and AI at the edge. There's just so much to discuss when it comes to AI, and we talk about it relatively frequently in an attempt to try to cover it from all sides.
