Watsonx is IBM's commercial generative AI and scientific data platform based on cloud. It offers a studio, data store, and governance toolkit. It supports multiple LLMs including IBM's own Granite and ones that are available on Hugging Face.[2]
The platform is described as an AI tool tailed to companies and a one which can be customized for customers' needs and trained on their confidential data, as client data is said to be not collected by IBM for further training of their models. Its also capable of fine-tuning, an approach which makes training pre-trained models on the newly introduced data possible.[3]
History
Watsonx is revealed on May 9, 2023 at annual Think conference of IBM as a platform that includes multiple services. Just like Watson AI computer with the similar name, Watsonx was named after Thomas J. Watson, IBM's founder and first CEO.[4]
Watsonx is currently used at ESPN's Fantasy Football App for managing players' performance.[5]
Services
watsonx.ai
Watsonx.ai is a platform that allows AI developers to leverage a wide range of LLMs provided by IBM and the Hugging Face community for a diverse set of AI development tasks. These models come pre-trained and are designed to excel in various Natural Language Processing (NLP) applications, encompassing question answering, content generation, summarization, text classification, and data extraction. The platform allows fine-tuning, allowing those models to learn the data provided by customers.[6]
watsonx.data
Watsonx.data is a platform designed to assist clients in addressing issues related to data volume, complexity, cost, and governance as they scale their AI workloads. This platform facilitates seamless data access, whether the data is stored in the cloud or on-premises, through a single entry point, offering simple use for users who may not possess technical expertise. This approach prioritizes data security and compliance.[6]
watsonx.governance
Watsonx.governance is a platform that utilizes IBM's AI governance capabilities to support organizations in implementing comprehensive AI lifecycle governance. This helps them manage risks and maintain compliance with evolving AI and industry regulations. The platform allows organizations to reduce AI bias by overseeing their AI initiatives, leveraging software automation to enhance risk mitigation, regulatory compliance, and ethical considerations.[6]
