Bloomberg Article on Azure ML and Cortana Analytics

Reposted from Bloomberg.com

Bloomberg ran this article today, about the ever-widening influence of machine learning in Microsoft’s internal operations as well as in its products. The article goes on to talk about how the company is sparking conversations with customers, helping educate them about all the myriad use cases that could greatly benefit from this technology.

“Microsoft is weaving machine learning into its own operations. This isn’t simply about helping the company save money and function better; the more Microsoft uses the technology itself, the easier it is to explain and sell.”

“Medical applications come up a lot. People have asked about using the technology to predict seizures, monitoring the elderly at assisted living facilities and deciding whether a football player injured during a game should go to hospital or back onto the field.”
