Google’s university partnership to enhance global tech

There is little doubt that AI has the capacity to improve daily lives and address social concerns globally. Google intends to facilitate AI research intended for the entire nation by partnering with a top university.

Google’s worldwide AI and technology leadership is reaffirmed by the agreement.

The corporation also funds AI and machine learning research with global institutions. A cooperation with The University of Tokyo and The University of Chicago was announced in May 2023 to promote both nations’ quantum computing ambitions.

Google will fund up to US$100m over ten years to invest in essential research issues and speed the development of a fault-tolerant quantum computer, using the talents of academia and Google Quantum AI. Our objective is to create a large-scale quantum computer that can do complicated calculations, promote entrepreneurship, and teach future workforces.
