While AI's recent dominance in the news cycle may seem
sudden, Crunchbase data reveals that major software developers,
chipmakers, and hyperscalers have been investing heavily in
artificial intelligence for years. These industry giants have
strategically built patent portfolios to protect their AI
innovations and gain a competitive edge, which takes years to
accomplish. Alongside financial investments, these companies have
established dedicated research labs, developed specialized AI
hardware, and built robust AI infrastructure. Their sustained
commitment and patent development have not only fueled AI
innovation but also created a ripple effect, supporting AI startups
