Key Trends

Companies are building their AI capabilities by investing in research and development and by acquiring talent and technologies from other companies large and small. This is reflected in the large number of AI acquisitions over the last few years.

Many of the acquisitions were not so much for the technology but to acquire the talents of the individuals running those companies. This was reflected in Samsung's acquisition of Viv. (Top talent includes CEO, co-founder Dag Kittlaus, Adam Cheyer, and Chris Bringham).

Another example is Salesforce acquisition of MetaMind which led to top talent Richard Socher who now runs AI Research and Development for Salesforce.

Many top AI professors or researchers from Carnegie Mellon (CM) have transitioned to work for large corporations. The school has a policy which supports professors transitioning to work for enterprise then back to the university to teach. At least four of CM researchers started Argo, autonomous vehicle company which recently received $1 Billion investment from Ford.

Several university professors with expertise in AI or machine learning are now working for the tech companies while still retaining their teaching roles at the universities.
