Best of luck selling your AI startup

More from Author

In Short:

The current time is perfect to start a company based on artificial intelligence, but there are challenges. High server bills, competition for talent, and the looming presence of Big Tech can be obstacles. Acquisitions by tech giants are facing increased scrutiny from regulators. Instead, partnerships and licensing deals are becoming more common. The trend of small AI companies partnering with tech giants is discussed by WIRED senior writer Paresh Dave on the show.


Artificial Intelligence Companies Facing Acquisitions by Big Tech Giants

Building a company around artificial intelligence is challenging in the current market. High server bills and the competitive talent market make it difficult to sustain a startup. Additionally, the looming presence of Big Tech companies like Google, Apple, Amazon, and Meta poses a threat to small AI companies.

Regulatory concerns prevent outright acquisitions by these tech giants as antitrust efforts increase in the US and Europe. Instead, they opt for licensing deals and partnerships, absorbing the technology and talent of smaller AI firms. This trend is on the rise, with more such collaborations expected in the future.

This week, WIRED senior writer Paresh Dave discusses these partnerships and the scrutiny faced by Google from regulators. The podcast also features recommendations for entertainment options.
