人工智能的最新發展

科技行業的許多巨頭，比如亞馬遜(Amazon)、谷歌、IBM和微軟(Microsoft)，都爭先恐后地想要成為人工智能領域的標志性企業。用科技界的行話來說，這些企業正在參與一場“平臺戰爭”背景介紹，大家先看一下；不用抄寫。

A platform, in technology, is essentially a piece of software that other companies build on and that consumers cannot do without. Become the platform and huge profits will follow. Microsoft dominated personal computers because its Windows software became the center of the consumer software world. Google has come to dominate the Internet through its ubiquitous search bar.

背景介紹，大家先看一下；不用抄寫。在科技行業里，平臺本質上是指這樣的軟件：其他公司以它為基礎，消費者離了它不行。成為平臺，利潤就會滾滾而來。微軟以前能統治個人電腦，是因為Windows軟件成為了消費類軟件領域的核心。谷歌已經開始統治互聯網，是因為擁有那無所不在的搜索引擎。 

今天的句子：

Google said its recently introduced vision software for identifying images would be broadly available soon, and it introduced new tools and training aids to help developers build machine-learning applications more easily.

Intelligent software applications will become commonplace, said Jeff Dean, a computer scientist who oversees Google’s A.I. development. “And machine 

learning will touch every industry.”
