What’s Next in AI
is foundation models at scale

The AI landscape today is dominated by purpose-built models deployed for dedicated tasks. But enterprises need a large corpus of labeled data, significant resources, and teams of skilled data scientists to train and maintain these models. Foundation models represent a generational opportunity for enterprise. They’re general-purpose, pre-trained models that can be fine-tuned to accomplish a wide set of tasks. We’re developing software, middleware, and hardware to bring frictionless, cloud-native development and use of foundation models to enterprise AI.
