When #Google 's CEO @SundarPichai declared the company would shift to an #AI -first strategy in May, a lot of people probably assumed he was talking primarily about Google's consumer offerings. There was a lot of discussion about how AI would influence things like search, computer vision and voice recognition.
However, it turns out that strategy is influencing what Google is doing in its enterprise offerings through its cloud platform, which hosts tools for businesses to analyze text sentiment, classify images and transcribe audio recordings, among many other machine learning tasks.
This ramped up enterprise functionality is helping the traditionally consumer-focused company make inroads into businesses' analytics shops with its cloud-based platform.
"When we say 'AI first,' it means taking our consumer-facing products and opening the same capabilities up to developers through the cloud platform," said Greg DeMichillie, director of product management on Google's cloud team. AI shows up in Google Cloud Platform in the form of API connectors to deep learning models for speech, language and image analysis.
