This isn't as splashy as chatGPT but probably no less important. This post announces watsonx (no capitalization for no good reason) its "next-generation" AI, consisting of three components (take a breath now): "the watsonx.ai studio for new foundation models, generative AI and machine learning; the watsonx.data fit-for-purpose store for the flexibility of a data lake and the performance of a data warehouse; plus the watsonx.governance toolkit, to enable AI workflows that are built with responsibility, transparency and explainability." The directly address GPT's shortcomings: "businesses need to feel confident that their models can be relied upon not to "hallucinate" facts or use inappropriate language when interacting with customers." There are tools and such, but there's also a pretty steep learning curve. Just reading all the blog posts that came with this release will fill your afternoon.
