BHAVISH AGGARWAL

(CEO OF OLA CABS)

After having a negative taxi experience, Aggarwal conceived the idea for a cab firm, and in 2010 he and Ankit Bhati founded Ola Cabs. In 22 Indian cities, Ola Cabs has established itself as the most popular alternative for many customers and has grown to be India's largest network of personal transportation services. Ola Cabs, an international ride-sharing business with its headquarters in Bangalore, is an Indian corporation. It also operates in additional industry sectors, such as cloud kitchens and financial services. Ola Cabs purchased Bangalore-based TaxiForSure in March 2015 for about US$150 million (12.37 billion). Users of the Ola mobile app have had access to TFS cabs since June 2015. Later on in the year, in November, Ola paid an unknown sum to purchase Geotagg, a provider of trip-planning software. In an effort to diversify beyond cab aggregation, Ola purchased struggling foodtech company Foodpanda India in December 2017 with the goal of capitalising on the expanding food delivery industry. With the acquisition of Ridlr (formerly Traffline), a public transportation ticketing service, in April 2018, Ola made its second acquisition. Ola invested another $100 million in the scooter rental startup Vogo later in August 2018 and again in December.

  Artifical Intelligence and Machine Learning  The roots of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning are deep, tracing back to the mid-20th century. Alan Turing, a notable figure in the development of theoretical computer science and artificial intelligence, posed the question "Can machines think?" back in 1950. This ignited the spark that fuelled decades of innovation. The term "Artificial Intelligence" was coined by John McCarthy for the 1956 Dartmouth Conference, the first academic conference of its kind. Machine Learning, on the other hand, made its debut in the late '50s when Arthur Samuel developed a program that could learn to play checkers. Fast forward to the 21st century, we've witnessed the evolution from rule-based systems to machines that can learn from vast datasets and even from their own experiences. The milestones are numerous, from IBM's Deep Blue defeating world chess champion Garry Kasparov in 1997 to the advent of deep learning w...
