Top 10 Companies Using Machine Learning Application

Machine learning and artificial intelligence are two of the most important technological advances in recent times. Machine learning is a field that promises to disrupt (to borrow a favorite term) our lives as we know them. However, many of its applications are still unexplored.

See the example of machine learning in action! These are 10 companies using machine learning in exciting new ways. Plus, a glimpse into the future.

1. Google — Neural Networks & ‘Machines That Dream’

It’s easier these days to list areas in scientific R&D that Google (or, rather, parent company Alphabet- ) isn’t working upon, than to try to summarize Google’s technological ambitions.

Google has been busy over the years. They have expanded into fields such as medical devices and anti-aging technology. But perhaps the most exciting thing for tech geeks is the neural network.

The most prominent development in Google’s research into neural networks has been the DeepMind network or the “machine of dreams.” This network is the one that generated those psychedelic pictures everyone was talking about.

Google claims that the company is currently researching practically all aspects of machine learning. This will result in exciting developments in “classical algorithms” and other applications, such as speech translation, natural language processing, search ranking, and prediction systems.

2. Pinterest — Improved Content Discovery

Pinterest is a fascinating social media platform, regardless of whether you are a fervent pinner or a novice. Pinterest’s primary function being to curate content is why it’s important that you invest in technology that will make this process more efficient. This is certainly the case at Pinterest.

In 2015, Pinterest purchased Kosei a machine-learning company that specialized in the commercial application of machine learning tech (specifically content discovery and recommendation algorithms).
