NTT Research, Inc., a subsidiary of NTT (TYO:9432), today announced that it has joined the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Artificial Intelligence (AI) Hardware Program as an inaugural industrial member. A leading academic center for AI research, MIT has established this program to coordinate various research groups at MIT that are related to this topic. A key strategic initiative of the program is to apply hardware technologies to improve AI engines from the perspective of its performance and energy consumption. NTT Research has joined for a three-year term that began in January 2022.

“Expanding our relationship with MIT through this new program makes good sense, as it builds upon our existing and productive engagements, which have generated two dozen papers and several patents in less than three years, and makes available additional access to MIT’s extensive research activities in AI, providing further opportunities for collaboration,” said Kazuhiro Gomi, President & CEO of NTT Research, Inc.
