Apple buys out machine learning company TuplejumpSeptember 23, 2016 - 10:11 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - After buying Perceptio at the end of 2015 and Turi just a few months ago, Apple has now acquired an India/US-based machine learning team, Tuplejump, TechCrunch reports. While Apple won’t outright confirm it, when asked about Tuplejump, a representative from Apple gave the company’s standard we’re-not-saying-yes-but-well-yes response that they only give when they have, in fact, bought the company in question: “Apple buys smaller technology companies from time to time, and we generally do not discuss our purpose or plans,” the rep said. Tuplejump’s website has been taken down following the acquisition, but a Wayback Machine capture of its about page has the company describing itself thusly: “A few years ago people realised that the volume of data that businesses generate was becoming unwieldy. A new set of technologies to handle this huge amounts of data cropped up. We were one of the early adopters of these ‘big-data’ technologies. Having helped Fortune 500 companies adopt these technologies we quickly realised how complicated they were and how much simpler they could get. Thus started our quest to simplify data management technologies and make them extremely simple to use. We are building technology that is simple to use, scalable and will allow people to ask difficult questions on huge datasets.” Terms of the deal are not yet known.
