Where there is Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), there is Hewlett Packard and viceversa. It happened in the 70s with Steve Wozniak e Steve Jobs. Even more so it could not fail to happen today in the field ofArtificial intelligence. And so after Apple, too Hewlett Packard Enterprise she took to the field and played her card, or rather she dropped an ace that was worth a lot 13 billion dollars to try to buy Juniper Networks, the multinational tech company founded in 1996.
The brings it back Wall Street Journal citing some sources, according to which the acquisition would allow Hewlett Packard Enterprise to position itself well in the era of artificial intelligence. The indiscretion gave wings to the headlines Juniper, which managed to earn 25% in the US pre-market. An agreement between the two companies could be announced already this week, according to people familiar with the matter.
Who is Juniper
The 30-year-old Juniper, based in Sunnyvale, California, sells communications networking equipment and services such as routers and switches to technology, telecommunications, financial and other customers. Notably, he also runs a growing business of artificial intelligence, known as Mist AI, which uses artificial intelligence and machine learning to optimize user experiences with wireless access.
Does HP want to overtake Apple with the purchase?
Also Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), is thinking about AI. Cupertino will launch its technology at June on the occasion of the next Worldwide developers conference (Wwdc) in which a series of tools based on generative artificial intelligence will be revealed, as reported by Mark Gurman of Bloomberg in his newsletter. The goal is to integrate AI into the voice assistant Crab. According to Bloomberg “the entirety of Apple's generative AI vision will take at least until 2025 to be fully implemented,” suggesting that not all planned features will arrive this year. HP's move by purchasing Juniper could accelerate its run and perhaps lead to a overtaking of its historical competitor.
