Artificial Intelligence Promises the Next Evolution of the Human
Experience
The following is an opinion editorial provided by Brian
Krzanich, chief executive officer of Intel Corporation.
At Intel, we have an optimistic and pragmatic view of artificial
intelligence’s (AI) impact on society, jobs and daily life that
will mimic other profound transformations – from the industrial to
the PC revolutions. Our belief is that AI will bring significant
new opportunities to transform business – from retail to healthcare
to manufacturing – and have an immensely positive impact on
society.
AI will make the impossible possible: advancing research on
cancer, Parkinson’s disease and brain disorders; helping to find
missing children; and furthering scientific efforts in climate
change, space exploration and oceanic research.
Press Kit: Artificial Intelligence at Intel
To drive AI innovation, Intel is making strategic investments
spanning technology, R&D and partnerships with business,
government, academia and community groups. We are deeply committed
to unlocking the promise of AI: conducting research on neuromorphic
computing, exploring new architectures and learning paradigms. We
have also invested in startups like Mighty AI*, Data Robot* and
Lumiata* through our Intel Capital portfolio and have invested more
than $1 billion in companies that are helping to advance artificial
intelligence.
I believe Intel will be the AI platform of choice, offering
unmatched reliability, performance, security and integration. We
are 100 percent committed to creating the roadmap of optimized
products to support emerging mainstream AI workloads.
AI solutions require a wide range of power and performance to
meet application needs, and Intel has the largest selection of
options for our customers to choose from. To support the sheer
breadth of future AI workloads, businesses will need unmatched
flexibility and infrastructure optimization so that both highly
specialized and general purpose AI functions can run alongside
other critical business workloads. The Intel® Nervana™ AI portfolio
delivers this breadth:
- Intel® Xeon® Scalable family –
providing highly scalable processors for evolving AI workloads and
our purpose-built silicon for the most intensive deep learning
training, code-named “Lake Crest”
- Intel® Mobileye – vision technologies
for specialized use cases such as active safety and autonomous
driving
- Intel FPGAs – programmable accelerators
for deep learning inference
- Intel® Movidius – low-power vision
technology provides machine learning at the edge
AI is still in its infancy, and as this space evolves, we’ll
continue to advance disruptive approaches in compute that support
the complex workloads of today and tomorrow.
