IBM makes watsonx.ai and watsonx.data available to enterprises
In one sentence On July 11, 2023 IBM makes available watsonx.ai, a studio for foundation models, generative AI and machine learning with IBM and Hugging Face community models, and watsonx.data, a data store for enterprise data; watsonx.governance is announced for later in the year.
After previewing it at IBM Think in May, IBM makes the watsonx platform available to customers, aimed at companies that want to use generative AI on their own data.
watsonx.ai is the studio where models are chosen, specialized and deployed: at launch it offers IBM-trained models and models from the Hugging Face community, pre-trained for tasks such as question answering, generating and summarizing text, and classifying and extracting information.
watsonx.data is the data store: it provides a single point of access to data spread across cloud and on-premises systems. The third component, watsonx.governance, focused on model oversight and transparency, is announced for later in 2023. IBM also promises more proprietary models in future releases.
