Red Hat and IBM Research Advance IT Automation with AI-Powered Capabilities for Ansible

#artificialintelligence

Red Hat, the world's leading provider of open source solutions, and IBM Research announced Project Wisdom, the first community project to create an intelligent, natural language processing capability for Ansible and the IT automation industry. Using an artificial intelligence (AI) model, the project aims to boost the productivity of IT automation developers and make IT automation more achievable and understandable for diverse IT professionals with varied skills and backgrounds. According to a 2021 IDC prediction1, "by 2026, 85% of enterprises will combine human expertise with AI, ML, NLP, and pattern recognition to augment foresight across the organization, making workers 25% more productive and effective. Technologies such as machine learning, deep learning, natural language processing, pattern recognition, and knowledge graphs are producing increasingly accurate and context-aware insights, predictions, and recommendations." Project Wisdom – underpinned by AI foundation models derived from IBM's AI for Code efforts – works by enabling a user to input a command as a straightforward English sentence.


Why You've Never Heard Of This Top AI Company

#artificialintelligence

Artificial intelligence is very prevalent in movies and science fiction, from sentient beings that are able to walk, and talk, and live with humans like the characters from Westworld, Star Wars, or Star Trek. In reality, however, we are a far way away from the dream of sentient machines that we see and read about in science fiction. So much of today's AI systems are doing much more mundane things that aren't getting the attention or interest of the press and media. However, interest and investment in AI remains strong, and even if AI is unable to live up to the fantasies of science fiction, vendors are riding the hype wave of AI and promising capabilities that AI systems might not be able to deliver. While vendors are doing their best to deliver these capabilities, the challenge is that adopters and end users sometimes themselves get caught up in the hype as well.

Assessing the intersection of open source and AI

#artificialintelligence

The Transform Technology Summits start October 13th with Low-Code/No Code: Enabling Enterprise Agility. Open source technology has been a driving factor in many of the most innovative developments of the digital age, so it should come as no surprise that it has made its way into artificial intelligence as well. But with trust in AI's impact on the world still uncertain, the idea that open source tools, libraries, and communities are creating AI projects in the usual wild west fashion is creating yet more unease among some observers. Open source supporters, of course, reject these fears, arguing that there is just as little oversight into the corporate-dominated activities of closed platforms. In fact, open source can be more readily tracked and monitored because it is, well, open for all to see. And this leaves us with the same question that has bedeviled technology advances through the ages: Is it better to let these powerful tools grow and evolve as they will, or should we try to control them?

The Open Source Technologies Behind One of the Biggest Language Models in History

#artificialintelligence

Transformers and pre-trained models can be considered one of the most important developments in the recent years of deep learning. Beyond the research breakthroughts, Transformers have redefined the natural language understanding(NLU) space sparking a race between lead AI vendors to build bigger and more efficient neural networks. The Transformer architecture has been behind famous models such as Google's BERT, Facebook's RoBERTa or OpenAI's GPT-3. Is not surprising that many people believe that only big companies have the resources to tackle the implementation of Transformer models. Earlier this year, the deep learning community was astonished when Microsoft Research unveiled the Turing Natural Language Generation (T-NLG) model which, at the time, was considered the largest natural language processing(NLP) model in the history of artificial intelligence(AI) with 17 billion parameters.


Seamlessly Scaling AI for Distributed Big Data

#artificialintelligence

Originally published at LinkedIn Pulse. Early last month, I presented a half-day tutorial on at this year's virtual CVPR 2020. This is a very unique experience, and I would like to share some of the highlights of the tutorial. The tutorial focused on a critical problem that arises as AI moves from experimentation to production; that is, how to seamlessly scale AI to distributed Big Data. Today, AI researchers and data scientists need to go through a mountain of pains to apply AI models to production dataset that is stored in distributed Big Data cluster.

9 top trends that are driving AI and software investments Talend Blog

#artificialintelligence

IT and data leaders are constantly challenged to keep up with new trends in emerging and disruptive technologies, and to determine how each can best aid the organization. In the midst of all the changes going on in 2019, it gets increasingly hard to know where to invest in all this new technology. To help add clarity, here are my thoughts on some of the most important trends that will shape data management and software development for the next couple of years. The business multi-verse expands through multi-cloud as data inefficiencies are solved: Multi-cloud promises tremendous reward if it can be used properly, but data inefficiencies and complicated compliance policies hinder progress for many. Expect to see some of those data inefficiencies fade away as effective data strategies are implemented and new technologies unleash true multi-cloud functionality to the masses.
