As Google’s boss, Sundar Pichai has put artificial intelligence at the center of almost everything the internet giant does these days. Now he wants other companies to catch up.
Alphabet Inc.’s Google is starting what it calls an "AI crash course" of free online tutorials, scripted by its staff, on how to write software that trains computers to translate text, sort images and understand videos.
