Watsonx.ai

At the recent COP28, NASA and IBM announced that an Artificial Intelligence (AI) tool called watsonx.ai would be available on the open-source AI platform Hugging Space.

Watsonx.ai is built on a foundation model; it is trained on a broad set of uncategorized data allowing the model to apply information about one situation to another.
The platform has a set of AI assistants to help one scale and accelerate the impact of artificial intelligence through trusted data across his/her business.

In the case of watsonx.ai, NASA provides the datasets and IBM created the foundation model to interpret them.
Watsonx.ai will help users monitor the Earth from space, measuring environmental changes that have already happened while also making predictions about the future.
The model is also designed to be extremely simple to use.
A user would merely need to select a location and a date, and the model will highlight changes in floodwater, reforestation efforts and other relevant factors.

In India, AI-equipped peanut farmers have already witnessed a 30 per cent increase in yield.

watsonx.data - It is a fit-for-purpose data store optimized for governed data and AI workloads.
watsonx.governance - It is an end-to-end toolkit encompassing both data and AI governance.
