Top Players in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning

Artificial Intelligence (AI) and its subset Machine Learning (ML) are no longer reserved for those working in this industry or classic science fiction novels. The general population has entered the AI and ML chat, so to speak. They’re engaging with popular chatbots like ChatGPT and watching contemporary movies with AI-powered protagonists, such as the killer doll in M3GAN.

In fact, AI and ML are experiencing a watershed moment in the technology landscape. It’s forecasted that the AI market will grow to nearly 208 million U.S. dollars by the end of 2023 and increase by twenty-fold in 2030.

AI opens exciting new avenues of innovation and streamlines business processes, enhances software, and paves the way for increased financial success in lieu of relying on human-dependent processes. We’ve covered a taste of automation in the following article discussing AI software in code development. Many companies and investors are getting in on the ground floor of this exciting period. However, potential clients may find themselves in the throes of option paralysis when deciding on a company for their AI project. To help, we’ve compiled a list of the top players in AI and ML in 2023 and hope they resonate with you!
