IBM WatsonX

IBM announced the launch of the watsonx platform in 2023, building on many years of IBM Research expertise and IP around AI. Watson-x offers a single, unified platform to help clients to train, tune and distribute models with generative AI and machine learning capabilities. IBM has designed watsonx to manage the entire life cycle of foundation models that are the basis of generative AI capabilities and for creating and tuning machine learning models.

The watsonx platform has three key components and allow you to customize how to deploy and use WatsonX to build and manage all or part pf your AI solution landscape:

• IBM® watsonx.ai™ AI studio is an integral component of the IBM watsonx™ AI and data platform, which unifies advanced generative AI capabilities driven by foundation models alongside traditional machine learning (ML) techniques into a comprehensive studio that encompasses the entire AI lifecycle. Users can fine-tune and direct models utilizing their enterprise data to fulfill specific requirements, supported by user-friendly tools designed for constructing and enhancing effective prompts. With watsonx.ai, the development of AI applications can be accomplished in significantly less time and with reduced data requirements.
•  
• The features of watsonx.ai include: 
•  

• Variety and flexibility of multi-model options: Select from IBM’s proprietary Granite models, open-source and third-party models, or incorporate your own custom foundation model. 

• Enhanced client protection: IBM guarantees the integrity of its Granite models and provides indemnification against third-party intellectual property claims. 

• Comprehensive AI governance: Organizations can expand and expedite the benefits of AI by utilizing reliable data throughout the enterprise, regardless of its location. 

• Hybrid, multi-cloud deployment capabilities: IBM offers the adaptability to integrate and implement AI workloads within your preferred hybrid-cloud infrastructure.

• IBM® watsonx.data™ : Use Watsonx.data to achieve Open Lakehouse for your data, using multiple query engine interoperability, an Open Ecosystem approach, and engineered from the get go to support Generative AI applications. Use your data effectively, no matter where it is, with the open, hybrid data lakehouse designed for AI and analytics, powered by Watsonx.data. Clients choose watsonx.data to eliminate data silos and access their information from any location, in any format, all through a single entry point with a shared metadata layer. They can also control costs by optimizing workloads for both price and performance, matching the right tasks with the appropriate query engine. This leads to quicker insight discovery through built-in natural-language semantic search, eliminating the need for SQL. Additionally, they achieve faster value creation with generative AI, enhancing AI outputs by ensuring that trusted data is available for accurate and relevant results from their AI models.

• IBM® watsonx.governance™: IBM® watsonx.governance™ has been designed to assist organizations in directing, managing, and overseeing their artificial intelligence (AI) initiatives. Oversee generative AI (gen AI) and machine learning (ML) models from various providers, including IBM® watsonx.ai™, Amazon Sagemaker and Bedrock, Google Vertex, and Microsoft Azure. Assess and monitor aspects such as model health, accuracy, drift, bias, and the quality of generative AI. Utilize robust governance, risk, and compliance features that include workflows with approval processes, customizable dashboards, risk scorecards, and comprehensive reports. Leverage factsheet capabilities to automatically gather and document model metadata throughout the AI model lifecycle.

IBM WatsonX Assistant

IBM watsonx Assistant represents an advanced conversational AI solution designed to enable individuals within your organization to seamlessly create generative AI Assistants. These Assistants provide smooth self-service experiences for customers across various devices and channels, enhance employee productivity, and facilitate scalability throughout your business.

• Intuitive interface featuring a drag-and-drop conversation builder along with pre-designed templates.
• Ready-to-use Large Language Models, Large Speech Models, Natural Language Processing (NLP), Natural Language Understanding (NLU), and Intelligent Context Gathering capabilities, which enhance the comprehension of each conversation’s context in natural language.
• Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) technology ensures precise, contextual, and current conversational responses at all times, anchored in your organization’s knowledge base.

IBM WatsonX Orchestrate

IBM watsonx Orchestrate is an advanced generative AI and automation platform designed to enhance your business operations by streamlining tasks, simplifying intricate processes, and ultimately conserving time and effort for you and your team.

The features of IBM watsonx Orchestrate include:

• Prebuilt applications, skills, and assistants: The skills catalog comprises thousands of prebuilt skills that facilitate the completion of a diverse array of tasks.
• AI assistant creator: Effortlessly design and implement a tailored AI assistant that engages users in productive conversations to help them achieve their objectives.
• Skills studio: Develop custom skills and workflows without requiring any coding knowledge.
•  

IBM has a rich repository of products and solutions including Watson Studio, Watson Discovery, Watson Text to Speech and Watson Speech to Text, Cloud Pak for Data and many more. Work with Coretech to define your data and analytics solution and identify which IBM technology(ies) help you achieve your objectives.
