Cisco has recently upgraded its internal efforts for AI development by announcing its intention to purchase a small start-up called MindMeld for US$125million.<\/p>\n

The leading worldwide IT company has its own AI platform, giving businesses the option to build conversational interfaces into applications and devices.<\/p>\n

MindMeld will be used to give Cisco a conversational AI platform, entity extraction, advanced natural language solutions in the areas of language semantics, and extensive libraries for vocabulary.<\/p>\n

To advance their teams collaboration tool, Cisco will be using the latest technology called Spark, and the brand will be using their own machine-learning algorithms to develop natural language transactions with chat assistance.<\/p>\n

The AI platform, which is a cloud-central solution, will then be completed by a group of doctors with a Spark board, used to pull up X-rays, health records and other crucial information.<\/p>\n

Spark also has the ability to introduce chat bots that completes tasks automatically, interacting with workers, virtual agents that handle customer care, and room kits to enhance smaller meetings.<\/p>\n
