From government to education to finance to healthcare to manufacturing\u2026. AI will be pervasive.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It&#8217;s not just the algorithms and software where we&#8217;re seeing big technology advances.  Hardware has been a key enabler of AI, if not the key.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.csail.mit.edu\/person\/joel-emer\">Joel Emer<\/a>, Computer Science professor at MIT, <a href=\"http:\/\/news.mit.edu\/2017\/building-hardware-next-generation-artificial-intelligence-1201\">said that<\/a> &#8220;many AI accomplishments were made possible because of advances in hardware. Hardware is the foundation of everything you can do in software.&#8221; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/danielriek\/\">Daniel Riek<\/a>, senior director of AI for Red Hat, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theregister.co.uk\/2018\/05\/10\/red_hat_ai_hardware_important\/\">said that<\/a> &#8220;with AI, we are back to where performance actually matters. Suddenly there is a direct business impact, and we have people talking about instruction sets and processor speeds again.&#8221; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mckinsey.com\/industries\/semiconductors\/our-insights\/artificial-intelligence-hardware-new-opportunities-for-semiconductor-companies\">A McKinsey report<\/a> sees the trend towards AI as a huge opportunity for semiconductor companies.  &#8220;The AI and DL revolution gives the semiconductor industry the greatest opportunity to generate value that it has had in decades. Hardware can be the differentiator that determines whether leading-edge applications reach the market and grab attention. The best semiconductor companies will understand these trends and pursue innovations that help take AI hardware to a new level.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div class=\"lightsocial_container\"><div
