10 SILICON VALLEY TECH TRENDS TO WATCH IN 2020 (SACC-SF/SV)

G, IoT, and AI are all game-changers expected to make 2020 an exciting year. In Silicon Valley, and globally.

 

Trend 1: Breakout moments for AI in manufacturing

AI is a game-changer in the manufacturing industry; during 2020 manufacturers are expected to continue to launch pilot projects and solutions that will improve both performance and profit.

One company that stands out in developing AI technologies for manufacturing is Silicon Valley-based Vicarious. The company that is backed by investors like Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg develops artificial general intelligence for robots, enabling them to generalize and learn from only a few examples. Vicarious recently presented a robot that could read and understand IKEA manuals; in other words: learn itself how to assemble furniture.

Two other AI companies in Silicon Valley to keep an eye on during 2020 are San Francisco-startup Osaro, and Foghorn Systems in Sunnyvale.
