This will impact the fee structure of law firms that charge by the hour on the revenue side but also be a potential cost savings as they will be able to hire fewer junior lawyers. 19 "Most of (the) software we write today at Google, everything, these are hand-coded systems... Over time, these could be lone systems, which automatically writes itself." A I I N S O F T W A R E D E V E L O P M E N T Sundar Pichai, Google CEO 20 Machine learning removes safety net for entry- level software developers Early-stage deals are emerging to startups focused on AI-based software testing, debugging, and basic frontend development. 21 J O B S 6-figure salaries in the AI talent wars 22 The demand for AI talent is far outpacing the availability of skilled researchers. T A L E N T & S K I L L S S H O R T A G E 23 Big tech scoops top AI talent Google's Deepmind Technologies reported that "staff costs and other related costs" accounted for 104.8M. A quick LinkedIn search puts the staff number at 415. Assuming this as team size in 2016, and discounting other expenses, this puts the average employee salary for the team at 252,000 (around $350,000 per annum). 24 China is on a hiring spree too $567K-$624K https://www.liepin.com $315K-$410K 25 According to a recent Tencent report, there are around 300,000 qualified AI researchers. But demand is in the millions.

But it is gradually losing its global deal share. 29 China wants to be a global AI leader Issued by the Chinese government in July 2017 http://www.gov.cn/zhengce/content/2017-07/20/content_5211996.htm 30 In some areas of AI, China is clearly beating the US. C H I N A R A C E S A H E A D 31 China dominates global AI funding US vs China total equity funding to startups in 2017 China surpasses US in equity funding Despite a mere 9% global deal share, China accounted for nearly 48% of the total funding. To put this proportion in perspective, in 2016, China accounted for only 11.3% of global funding. 32 Technologies fueling China's growth Facial recognition AI chips C H I N A I N A I 33 China invests heavily in facial recognition tech All deals, including grants, 2013 - 2017 China advances ambitious surveillance plans Three key players here are China-based unicorns Megvii (dba Face++) and SenseTime, and startup CloudWalk (the latter a recipient of a $301M grant from the Guangzhou Municipal Government. $M 34 AI-related patent publications explode in China Based on keyword searches, 2013 - 2017 Patents reflect China's AI R&D efforts Based on basic keyword searches of title and abstract, AI-related patent publications in China are surging far ahead of patents being published in these spaces by the US Patent and Trademark Office. (Note: The patent filing process involves a significant time-lag before the publishing of patent applications.) 35 Cross-border AI investments on the rise Equity deals, 2013 - 2017 Tech swapping between countries increases Despite scrutiny of Chinese companies seeking partnerships or investments in the US, there are more Chinese investments in AI startups in the US than vice-versa. 36 B U S I N E S S AI for X is everywhere 37 There is now AI for weed. DeepGreen uses computer vision to identify the gender and health profile of cannabis plants. Weedguide raised $1.7M to use AI for personalized weed recommendations. 38 And fish. DeepFish in Russia is using neural networks to identify, well, fish. It merges radar technology with AI to differentiate between fish and noise in radar images. 39 And horses. Sweden's Hoofstep raised VC money to bring deep learning-based behavioral analysis to horses. 40 B U S I N E S S The machine learning hype will die 41 The ML frenzy in numbers 1,100+ New startups raised 1st equity since 2016 A I I S E V E R Y W H E R E $15.2B Equity funding in 2017 alone, a 141% jump from the previous year 300+ Companies entered incubators in 2017, 3x more than 2016 42 "I believe that in 2 years, no investor is going to be explicitly looking to fund AI-powered startups." B U T T H E H Y P E W I L L S O O N D I E Frank Chen, partner at a16z 43 AI heats up across every industry Equity deals, Q4'12 Q4'17 Machine learning gets normalized We are already seeing this happen in many industries. Machine learning is inseparable from IIoT. Almost all cybersecurity companies use machine leaning to some extent today. In addition to this, big tech companies are offering a suite of machine learning solutions to enterprises. 44 Investors will get picky about startup funding Competitive landscape Business model feasibility Robustness of technology M L - B A S E D C O M P A N Y ? S O W H A T ? 45 B U S I N E S S Amazon, Google, Microsoft dominate enterprise AI 46 Investors poured $1.8B into enterprise AI startups in 5 years. E N T E R P R I S E A I 47 Now Amazon, Microsoft, and Google may make smaller companies obsolete. E N T E R P R I S E A I 48 Big tech doubles down on enterprise services Microsoft is competing neck and neck with AWS with Azure cloud services. Google released Cloud AutoML. Customers can bring their own data to train the algorithms to suit their specific needs. AWS expanded its enterprise AI offerings. Its 4th quarter revenue alone was $5B. 49 T E C H N O L O G Y The emergence of 'capsule networks' 50 Challenges of convolutional neural networks (CNN) The example below shows a very basic illustration. A CNN would identify individual features and mistake the second image to be a face. 51 Google's Geoffrey Hinton published a research paper in 2017 that introduces the concept of "capsule networks". C A P S U L E N E T W O R K S 52 The promise of capsule networks For example, these networks would more easily identify that when features on a face are rearranged, it is no longer a face. 53 CapsNets will require less training data With CNNs, for instance, you have to train the algorithm with images of the same object from different angles or viewpoints for it to identify all variations. As a result, it would require a large volume of training data to cover all possible variations. Image source: https://openreview.net/pdf?id=HJWLfGWRb 54 CapsNets may be less prone to hacking attempts One of the more popular examples is from a 2015 paper. As seen above, a small change that is not readily noticeable to the human eye results in a neural network identifying a panda as a gibbon, a type of ape, with high confidence. 55 I N D U S T R Y AI diagnostics gets the nod from regulators 56 AI heats up across every industry Equity deals, Q4'12 Q4'17 Healthcare AI deals top the chart Healthcare is the hottest area of AI startup investment as our heatmap shows. 57 Market map of healthcare AI startups Much of this growth is fueled by medical imaging & diagnostics companies. 58 The Arterys cloud computing platform was approved for analyzing cardiac images.
