1Note that Deutsche Telekom, Salesforce, Health Catalyst, and Element AI originally were partners of the PAI and have therefore been listed as such. At the time of finishing this manuscript (early 2021), however, they appear to have cancelled their membership. Note also that PAI member OpenAI, a general purpose AI research laboratory, has been left out since it went commercial only very recently (their GTP-3 language model was launched in June 2020).

2Quantum-Black is the data analytics arm of McKinsey.

3As a research laboratory, DeepMind enjoys considerable independence within Google. They also issued AI principles of their own (long before Google did so). Therefore, DeepMind is listed separately from Google.
