Microsoft to invest $16 billion for its AI portfolio

According to sources, Microsoft Corp is in advanced talks to buy artificial intelligence and speech technology company Nuance Communications Inc at about $16 billion. The price being discussed could value Nuance at about $56 a share.

 

Burlington, Massachusetts-based Nuance whose voice recognition technology helped launch Apple Inc's assistant Siri, makes software for sectors ranging from healthcare to the automotive industries.

 

The deal with Nuance would be Microsoft's second-biggest deal, after its $26.2 billion acquisition of LinkedIn in 2016.
