WatsonX Impresses

If you haven’t yet, head on over to the IBM Watsonx.ai Developer Studio. Think of it as a development studio to work with big AI models. What does that mean?

It’s a hard concept to grasp at first. IBM does a pretty good job with this statement from their website:

IBM® watsonx.ai™ is an enterprise-grade studio for developing AI services and deploying them into your applications of choice―with a collection of the APIs, tools, models and runtimes you need to turn your ideas and requirements into reality.

Think of it like this: You can have access to, edit, build applications around, train and tune many of industry leading AI models.

The pace of innovation is increasing as companies like IBM innovate with computing, their own Granite model, and tools and companies like Google and Meta willingly opensource their models.

There are even a few case studies where companies have started to utilize the technology, however what we expect will happen is usage will build slowly and then the applications developed will suddenly give each organization a quantum leap in revenue or efficiency, making the platform likely very sticky.

Good move from IBM with a new well-done product.
