These SOTA AI technologies would make Edge incredibly fast.
- Microsoft will integrate more AI technologies in Edge.
- Specifically, Edge will get SOTA AI technologies that aim to make the browser much faster.
- Would you use Edge if it had more AI capabilities?
While Microsoft Edge doesn’t match the popularity of other Internet browsers, especially Google Chrome, Edge is arguably faster than Chrome on many levels, and the browser uses a lot of AI technologies to enhance and improve the browsing experience.
And, it seems Microsoft is keen on adding even more capabilities to Edge. In a recent job listing from the Redmond-based tech giant, Microsoft Edge will be getting SOTA AI technologies to offer an intelligent user experience.
Microsoft is looking for an applied scientist based in Beijing, China, who will get to work on future technologies for Edge. And these future technologies also include a focus on SOTA AI technologies, as Microsoft says:
Edge Machine learning team is the core science team behind Edge browser. We are looking for passionate ML Software engineers, Applied Scientists to help us on our mission to build the most intelligent web browser ever by developing SOTA machine learning, deep learning technologies to understand various web content as well user behaviors.
A big part of Microsoft AI research happens in China, and novel AI projects, such as DeepRapper, or the most recent and equally fascinating InstructDiffusion, are the perfect examples of AI breakthroughs that are discovered in the region. And they are SOTA AI technologies.
What are SOTA AI technologies and how will they upgrade Edge
SOTA stands for State-of-the-art and it’s a name that encompasses the best AI technologies that can be used to complete tasks in the most optimal way possible.
Whether we talk about generative AI or non-generative AI, SOTA technologies will always look to use the best ways to enhance artificial intelligence to its highest potential. For example, SOTA technologies in AI might make it:
- Far more precise: the AI would be able to correctly complete tasks as close to what the user actually needs.
- Incredibly reliable: as SOTA technologies enhance the AI, the AI will also be able to use them to train itself; this means the AI is far less likely to fail to complete further tasks.
- Easily reproduced and/or cloned even: and we can see this in the variations of GPT-based AI tools, such as Bing, Windows Copilot, or ChatGPT.
- Faster, much faster: SOTA technologies would make the browser far more able to handle a lot of tasks, from setting itself up to coming up with generative content, suggestions, and security policies in no time.
We already know that Microsoft’s main focus is on AI, and the Redmond-based tech giant will greatly enhance its products with it. But will it be enough to make Edge the most popular browser around?
