At the technology summit, IBM's Cox presented a compelling argument for open innovation in enterprise machine learning. Cox, VP of artificial intelligence systems and head at the MIT-IBM Watson AI Lab, stressed the significance of collaboration in innovation, notably in the modern artificial intelligence ecosystem.
The IBM executive pointed out the complex character of transparency in machine learning, questioning the simplistic perception of the idea. He noted the expanding ecosystem of open models from various sources, including tech giants, universities, and governments.
Nonetheless, he articulated worries about the nature of openness in many AI language systems, pointing out that certain models provide little more than a "bag of numbers" devoid of clarity in their development processes.
