Google's latest venture fund will back AI startups
There's no question that Google believes artificial intelligence is the future, but it doesn't feel like it needs to all the hard work by itself. It's willing to give others a helping hand. To that end, Google has launched a venture capital firm, Gradient Ventures, that will offer financial backing and "technical mentorship" to AI startups. They'll have access to experts from Google itself, including futurist Ray Kurzweil, design mastermind Matias Duarte and X lab leader Astro Teller.
