IBM has announced IBM watsonx, a new AI and data platform that will enable enterprises to scale and accelerate the impact of advanced AI with trusted data. This platform will enable enterprises to train, tune and deploy AI models, including foundation models and machine learning capabilities, across their organization with trusted data, speed, and governance. It will run across any cloud environment.
IBM is announcing further planned advancements at Think, including a GPU-as-a-service infrastructure offering, an AI-powered dashboard to measure, track, manage, and report on cloud carbon emissions, and a new practice for watsonx and generative AI from IBM Consulting. IBM watsonx.ai is a next generation enterprise studio that provides foundation models, training and tuning tools, and cost-effective infrastructure to facilitate the data and AI lifecycle.
It also includes a foundation model library that gives users easy access to IBM curated and trained foundation models. As part of a new collaboration between IBM and Hugging Face, the watsonx.ai studio will build upon Hugging Face’s open-source libraries and offer thousands of Hugging Face open models and datasets. Arvind Krishna, IBM Chairman and CEO said “With IBM watsonx, clients can quickly train and deploy custom AI capabilities across their entire business, all while retaining full control of their data.”
