Microsoft (NasdaqGS:MSFT) has partnered with online education-to-employment platform OpenClassrooms to train students for AI jobs in the workplace.

OpenClassrooms co-founder and CEO Pierre Dubuc commented:

"The demand for AI and machine learning opportunities has never been stronger. We're excited to be an innovation partner to Microsoft to usher in new tactics that will bring top talent to the workforce."

Intel Corporation (NasdaqGS:INTC) has announced its new product portfolio, which includes the 2nd-Generation Intel Xeon Scalable processor featuring integrated Intel Deep Learning Boost for AI deep learning inferencing acceleration and support for Intel Optane DC persistent memory. Navin Shenoy, Intel executive vice president and general manager of the Data Center Group, said:

The portfolio of products announced today underscores our unmatched ability to move, store and process data across the most demanding workloads from the data center to the edge.

LogMeIn, Inc. (NasdaqGS:LOGM) has introduced enhancements to its intelligent customer engagement platform, Bold360. Ryan Lester, Director of Customer Engagement Technologies at LogMeIn, explained:

“As customer expectations continue to increase, agents are finding it difficult to keep up with the ever-expanding engagement channels, limits of legacy systems and the complexity of incoming queries. While AI is certainly helping with much of this, we can’t forget about the humans behind the bots.     Artificial intelligence is perfectly suited for some things, but it isn’t a replacement for human intelligence.  Creating a best in class customer experience is about finding the right balance between the two.  Today’s announcement focuses on the agent and ensuring they have the tools and technologies to take on more complicated challenges and ultimately be human when humanity is needed most.”
