The Future of AI Startups: Explainability Is Your Competitive Edge
In this contributed article, Lucas Bonatto, Director of Engineering for AI and ML at Semantix, discusses how generative AI applications extend from physiotherapists using text-to-video tools demonstrating patient recovery exercises to coding Q&As that decrease network language complexity. These pre-trained ML solutions, which previously required highly skilled teams to train, close the gap between tech giants and digital novices—but that’s if they understand the fine print.
New IDC Survey: 75% Expect to Gain Value from AI Decision Making
IDC estimates that organizations worldwide will spend $290 billion on data management, analytics, and AI technology – but is there enough return on the investment?
