“This is a very important area,” CEO Larry Page told about 200 shareholders at Google’s Mountain View, Calif., headquarters, and others listening via a webcast. “It’s amazing what computers have been able to do in translation, search and understanding photos.”
“We’re at quite the early stages of that in terms of empowering everyone to get things they want to do done by using computers to do a lot of their work,” Page said.
Google is using machine learning in a growing number of products and services, including automatic translation, voice-based searching, self-driving cars and the Nest connected thermostat. Google displayed its expertise at its developers’ conference last week with a new photo-storage service that can recognize the subjects and locations of photos, through other information Google knows about a user, and sort them accordingly.
Executive Chairman Eric Schmidt said Google’s machine-learning programs benefit from the company’s vast stores of data, which include the majority of Internet searches conducted world-wide.
