Ideas Are Important

Having a good look at Apple’s latest shopping list, there no denial with the fact that Tim Cook has big plans for the artificial intelligence industry. What seems like a shopping spree, only months after buying Turi, and also recollecting that Apple bought Perceptio at the end of 2015, rumors of the firm buying another machine learning startup have resurfaced.

This time it’s India/US based machine learning startup called Tuplejump.
Though the representative from Apple neither denied nor acknowledged the buzz going around, but they didn’t either shy away from giving their standard response when they do acquire a company:
“Apple buys smaller technology companies from time to time, and we generally do not discuss our purpose or plans.”
Coming back to the startup, Tuplejump was founded by Rohit Rai, Satyaprakash Buddhavarapu and Deepak Alur. The Hyderabad-based firm helps companies to store, process and visualise big data. According to media reports, apple was particularly interested in “FiloDB”, an open source project that Tuplejump was building to efficiently apply machine learning concepts and analytics to massive amounts of complex data right as it streamed in.

The important thing is that big companies are now a days are focusing on different ideas that can be implemented to improve the consumer satisfaction through providing new and improved services.
