MLOps – For building a trusted AI system
MLOps is the new discipline of machine learning that will make the machine learning models more ethical, scalable, and explainable. It also provides well-defined frameworks for end-to-end model management, from data collection to operationalizing an end product with oversight in place. It is the next evolution of machine learning and will play a critical role in creating a trusted and ethical AI system as they go from theory to practice. Read the blog to learn more.
Artificial Intelligence defined in simple terms
When you think about artificial intelligence, many futuristic images come to mind. However, AI is quickly becoming a standard part of our everyday lives and businesses must learn. Businesses use machine learning in their everyday activities. So, they need to understand how machine learning works to take advantage of this powerful technology in their business operations. In the future, AI, ML, and DL will do much more than what they can today. They will also have a bigger effect on our lives, from social media to mobile phones, autonomous vehicles, wearable devices, home assistants, chatbots, and so many others.

Unlocking the potential of your enterprise data with AI
Enterprise data forms a key part of the modern-day digital transformation strategy. However, for leveraging the value that data represents for businesses today, what happens after you have set your data strategy into action makes all the difference. This is true for businesses across all industries. With AI making significant leaps in the customer experience arena, digital business is now ripe for impactful transformation that is bound to bring significant value to the table. The times call for a reinvention of your CX transformation journey with artificial intelligence. This technology, and its use cases, which have demonstrated high ROI across all industries, are the key to squeezing the most out of your enterprise data as your data strategy goes from theory to practice in earnest.

The promise of AI – Addressing the challenges that enterprises face in their AI-driven data transformation journey
As the world moves towards digitalization, organizations embrace AI at an enterprise level, which promises to provide considerable benefits for businesses and economies through its contributions to productivity growth, customer experience, and innovation. But despite substantial advances in AI, organizations still face business and technical challenges to adopt AI across their value chains. At HCLTech, we understand the complexities of business processes underpinned by IT infrastructure, data, and security, which pave the way to identify the right business use case and the right technical infrastructure to support modern AI applications.

The AI frontier – Driving reliable and stable IT operations
With the increasing adoption of the concepts of Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) in mainstream enterprises, automation is becoming more intrusive in IT operations. From detecting anomalies to suggesting ways to remediate them, AI and machine learning models that analyze data patterns in systems have shown the potential to streamline every phase of operations and development. They find their place in most of DevOps and SRE implementations. But as it has become evident that the value of any technology is only as good as its implementation. That will continue to be the key differentiator for effective AI and ML adoption in an enterprise. Read the blog to learn more.
Palisade.ai – Scaling machine learning models across the enterprise to power data-driven transformation
Machine Learning (ML) has empowered a broad range of industries, including life sciences, manufacturing, consumer goods, financial services, and telecom. Despite its ubiquity, many enterprises face myriad challenges and shortcomings in developing, deploying, and managing their Machine Learning applications and find it difficult to shift from experimentation to production grade AI. The need to adopt DevOps practices in ML to increase automation whilst addressing business and regulatory requirements is becoming a foundational need that’s converging into a set of common practices, tools and governance functions under Machine Learning Operations or MLOps.
