Interested in what Google AI can do. Know nothing about AI at all Trying to figure out what Google is offering in the article at this link
https://www.nytimes.com/2018/01/17/technology/google-sells-ai.html.

I also need to know if their offerings are limited to visual scans and if so, the range of photographical types it can work with (heat maps for example, or continuous video feed).

We are a small road construction company looking for ways to start using AI on some of our projects so I am in the process of gathering information on exactly what it can do.
Google is just one of the vendors for AI and their initial AI self-service is limited to image analysis. Their are other AI vendors (Microsoft, Amazon) that have other services also. AI is definitely capable of continuous video feed analysis. The self-driving car technology uses live video feed analysis. Are you exploring AI in general or specific use cases? I did a presentation on AI use cases for oil &amp; gas engineering and construction that could give you some ideas.
