The Apple company is investing more and more money in artificial intelligence for its online services, according to some information that appeared today. Although Apple tries to keep its projects secret, one of its directors recently spoke in an interview about what the American company is doing at the moment regarding the development of artificial intelligence.
According to this director, named Carlos Guestrin, the Apple company currently has a team of engineers in Seattle that develops artificial intelligence systems. Apple has rented two floors in a building in Seattle where these teams work and intends to rent a few more to expand the engineering team in the near future.
The engineers who work there develop technologies for artificial intelligence that will be used in the future, 3-10 years from now. Basically, Apple is trying to predict the future in terms of artificial intelligence and to speed up the development of these systems that are increasingly popular in recent years.
In the last year, the Apple company has invested considerable sums in artificial intelligence and will continue to do so in order to have an advantage over the competitors. Apple managed to guess the fact that artificial intelligence is the future, so it wants to have technologies as quickly as possible that will make our life easier in using its products.
"Guestrin spoke with GeekWire at Apple's engineering center in the Two Union Square skyscraper, where the company currently leases two floors and has committed to take additional floors to accommodate its expansion plans. Apple declined to specify the size of the expansion, but sources say a lease should be finalized soon. Guestrin said the group is doing long-term research, looking ahead three to 10 years, but also focusing on the near-term, developing new features for upcoming Apple products."
