SAN FRANCISCO, Jan 4 (AFP): Microsoft president Brad Smith on Friday said the company is on track to pump about $80 billion into artificial intelligence (AI) this fiscal year.
Smith contended AI is poised to transform all aspects of life, and it is imperative that the United States be the global leader when it comes to the technology, he wrote in an online post. China and the US are racing to spread their AI systems to other countries to become the de facto standard, he said.
