In the case of Google's Android monopoly, the European Commission today officially announced a fine of 4.34 billion euros ($ 5.04 billion) for Google. In this, Google CEO Sandar Pichai (Sundar Pichai) published an article warning that because of the European Union's decision, Android may not be kept free.
The European Union said: Google abused its Android monopoly status and conduct improper business operations. Google's mobile device maker, which requires Android, must use Google's search engine, browser app, and other Google services on its new phone if it wants to be licensed by the Google Play app store. And that's not the first time. Last June, the European Union ruled against Google's shopping monopoly, saying it had decided to impose a fine of € 2.42 billion ($ 2.8 billion) on Google, as Google shopping its search results to favor its own services.
Plus the $5 billion fine for Android, the European Union has already issued a $7.8 billion ticket to Google.
Google has said it will appeal the decision on a fine made by the European Union today.
Al Verney, a Google spokesman, said: "Android offers more choices for everyone than a limited choice." We will appeal the decision of the European Commission. Google also said in a statement that a vibrant ecosystem, rapid innovation and lower prices are typical features of fierce competition.
Google is increasingly focusing on neural networks and artificial intelligence to address problems in search, image processing, and other computing areas. It is also promoting the interest of AI in developers and DIY communities through programs such as the Aiy project, which in itself represents artificial intelligence.
Google's AIY project (AIY Projects) is all called Artificial Intelligence yourself, meaning to create your AI. The project, launched by Google in 2017, aims to make every maker (creator) DIY its AI AI products. In May and December, Google launched two sets of kit Voice kits and Vision kits, respectively, that the project represents.
Voice Kit is Google's first DIY AI offering. It uses the Google Assistant SDK and the Cloud Speech API to convert the Raspberry Pi to a speech digital assistant. Based on this, users can create a virtual voice assistant to add voice interactivity to their projects.
Vision Kit is Google's second play DIY product. It is a simple computer vision system that can run 3 types of TensorFlow-based neural network model applications. AIY Vision Kit includes cardboard housings, buttons, speakers, and Raspberry pi Zero wh,raspberry pi cameras, SD cards and more. The computer vision features of this cool box suite are controlled by the included Vision Bonnet board.
The Visionbonnet board is the core of the project, using the Intel Movidius MA2450 chip. This low-power visual processing Unit is capable of running a neural network model to identify objects.
Voice kit uses the Google Smart Assistant to add speech control to your Raspberry Pi, while vision kit turns on image recognition and introduces a neural network to the creators. It detects common objects in thousands, but it can also detect your facial expressions and show your emotions, such as anger, happiness, and so on.
