Coding seems to be the flavour of the month for artificial intelligence (AI) companies. Recently, OpenAI increased its focus on its coding platform Codex, and now Google appears to be shifting its focus as well. As per a report, the Mountain View-based tech giant's DeepMind division has created a specialised team that has been tasked with building AI models focused on coding. The aim is, reportedly, to close the gap between the company and Anthropic and is likely to secure a larger share of the lucrative high-ticket enterprise revenue.
