Twitter partners with Mila AI research institute

Twitter wants to improve your experience on the service with the help of machine learning. The company has partnered with Montreal-based artificial intelligence research institute Mila to achieve that goal. The partnership's focus is Twitter's Cortex data and machine learning group. The three-year collaboration includes year-round open research engagements between the organizations, with Twitter researchers getting "elevated" access to Mila facilities and other internal resources. BetaKit reports there is a financial component to the deal to support Mila's projects, but the company hasn't disclosed the amount.
