Artificial Intelligence (AI) hasn't been fully realized for its business potential, agree 751 business insiders across five industries in KPMG's new study, "Living in an AI World 2020: Achievements and Challenges of Artificial Intelligence across Five Industries." Technologists are confident: 87% of tech respondents said their industry is ahead of the curve in AI adoption, and 81% believe their employees are open to AI integration into the workplace. Pretty much everyone (92%) is clear that the spectrum of AI technologies will make their companies run more efficiently. Unsurprisingly, when the other four industries were surveyed, they agreed (83%) that technology is the most advanced sector in using AI. Technology insiders (62%) believe AI adoption is moving within the industry at an appropriate speed, but the majority (73%) want their company to be even more aggressive in AI investment and adoption, notably in the area of organizational improvement.

The Apple Campus 2 is seen under construction in Cupertino, California in this aerial photo taken January 13, 2017. The case against Big Tech seems to be building by the week. And interestingly, some of the most powerful evidence is being provided by those who really know what they're talking about: tech insiders. Full disclosure: I am a tech insider myself. I run a tech company in Silicon Valley.

The search function in Google Photos uses TensorFlow. Google made waves Monday when it made its new artificial intelligence system TensorFlow open source. Google has used TensorFlow for the past year for a variety of applications. For example, Google Photos is scary good at search because it uses TensorFlow to recognize places based on popular landmarks or characteristics, like the Yosemite National Park mountain range. Other Google products that use TensorFlow include Google search, Google's voice recognition app, and Google Translate.

As the band gets into their groove, the guitarist gets ready to rip a solo he's practiced for endless hours. The crowd knows he'll pull it off perfectly. This is the future that researchers, funded by the US Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), are hoping to produce, according to Tech Insider. A team, lead by Kelland Thomas from the University of Arizona, is trying to teach artificial intelligence software how to jam to jazz music, in the hopes of one day designing robots that can play real instruments and make sweet music. Thomas' team will build up a database of music from jazz legends like Miles Davis and Louis Armstrong. Then it'll force the software through machine learning to go over the music until it knows it inside and out.

Google just announced that they're making a big bet on artificial intelligence to move the company's services forward. During Google's Q3 earnings call CEO Sundar Pichai said the company was "re-thinking" all of its products to include more artificial intelligence and an approach called machine learning. Artificial intelligence (AI) has always played a huge part in Google's success. We talked to Geoffrey Hinton, AI researcher at Google and the University of Toronto, over email about the future of the field. He predicted that AI will likely loom ever larger in our lives, without our even knowing it.

IBM Watson wants to take your music to another level. Most people know Watson for its legendary performance on "Jeopardy!" But IBM's supercomputer has a host of other skills since its 2011 trivia debut. Watson's artificial intelligence can help doctors diagnose cancer, help teach a graduate level class, and even analyze characters in Harry Potter. And soon, IBM's Watson will be able to create entirely new music on a convenient app.

The very first robot lawyer that was designed to challenge parking tickets has been wildly successful since it was launched last Fall. British programmer Joshua Browder, 19, launched the beta version of the bot in London in September. In that month alone, 3,000 people used the service to appeal their parking tickets. By February, it had already appealed 3 million worth of parking tickets. In April, Browder launched the bot in New York as well. To-date, the bot has successfully appealed between 160,000 of 250,000 parking tickets in both London and New York, giving it a 64% success rate.

Sidewalk Labs, a top-secret urban innovation division run under Google's parent company Alphabet, wants to improve city life for city-dwellers by reinventing public parking and transportation. Its first testing grounds - Columbus, Ohio - may host subsidized ride-sharing, a service that finds free parking spots, and an artificial intelligence platform that will help meter maids fine more people, all in the Buckeye State capital. Earlier in 2016, Sidewalk Labs announced plans to buy up land in major US cities and transform the parcels into ultra-high tech municipalities. In conjunction with the US Department of Transportation, it launched the Smart City Challenge to identify a launchpad for its innovations. The Guardian revealed on Monday never-before-seen documents and proposals from the Smart City Challenge.
