Facts, it has been said, are stubborn things. For generative AI, a stubborn fact is that it consumes very large quantities of compute cycles, data storage, network bandwidth, electrical power, and air conditioning. As CIOs respond to corporate mandates to “just do something” with genAI, many are launching cloud-based or on-premises initiatives. But while the payback promised by many genAI projects is nebulous, the costs of the infrastructure to run them is finite, and too often, unacceptably high. Infrastructure-intensive or not, generative AI is on the march. According to IDC, genAI workloads...

Los directores de Sistemas de la Información (CIO, por sus siglas en inglés) y los directores de Recursos Humanos están cambiando sus ecuaciones en materia de contratación y formación, centrándose en mayor medida en la recapacitación de los empleados actuales para cumplir la promesa de las tecnologías de inteligencia artificial (IA). Este cambio se debe en gran parte a que el mercado de talentos de IA está cada vez más en su contra. Algunos expertos en contratación afirman que, con la gran demanda de talentos en IA, la escasez de técnicos disponibles en este campo no hará sino empeorar, ya que...

Bruselas continúa perfilando los límites del uso de la inteligencia artificial (IA) y disipando dudas acerca de la responsabilidad civil y legal en el desempeño de cualquier actividad que incorpore la citada tecnología. Así, según advirtió el organismo de Control de Valores del bloque de los Veintisiete en su primera declaración sobre IA, los bancos y los fondos de inversión afincados en la Eurozona no podrán eludir la responsabilidad de las juntas directivas y la obligación legal de proteger a los clientes cuando utilizan esta tecnología. En este sentido, la Autoridad Europea de Valores y Mer...

CIOs and HR managers are changing their equations on hiring and training, with a bigger focus on reskilling current employees to make good on the promise of AI technologies. That shift is in no small part due to an AI talent market increasingly stacked against them. With AI talent in high demand, the shortage of AI technicians available will only get worse, some hiring experts say, as job postings for workers with AI expertise are growing 3.5 times faster than for all jobs, according to a recent PwC report. Worse, university pipelines don’t appear to be providing relief anytime soon. Although ...

By Martin Heller If ever there were a salient example of a counter-intuitive technique, it would be quantization of neural networks. Quantization reduces the precision of the weights and other tensors in neural network models, often drastically. It’s no surprise that reducing the precision of weights and other parameters from, say, 32-bit floats to 8-bit integers, makes the model run faster, and allows it to run in less powerful processors with far less memory. The stunning, counter-intuitive finding is that quantization can be done while largely preserving the accuracy of the model. Why do we...

Generative AI is poised to disrupt nearly every industry, and IT professionals with highly sought after gen AI skills are in high demand, as companies seek to harness the technology for various digital and operational initiatives. The State of Generative AI in the Enterprise report from Deloitte found that 75% of organizations expect generative AI technology to impact talent strategies within the next two years, and 32% of organizations that reported “very high” levels of generative AI expertise are already on course to make those changes. With so much at stake, AI skills in general are earnin...

La consultora PwC anunció el miércoles que está acelerando su adopción de la inteligencia artificial (IA) generativa en Estados Unidos (EE.UU) y Reino Unido mediante un acuerdo de colaboración con OpenAI. En virtud del mismo, la consultoría tecnológica se ha convertido en el primer distribuidor de ChatGPT Enterprise y en el mayor usuario del producto. “Los consultores de PwC están aprovechando las capacidades de ChatGPT Enterprise como una valiosa herramienta en su trabajo”, avanzó el socio y líder de IA generativa en PwC, Bret Greenstein. “Esta tecnología no sólo mejora la productividad y agi...

By Simon Bisson It wan’t hard to spot the driving them of Build 2024. From the pre-event launch of Copilot+ PCs to the two big keynotes from Satya Nadella and Scott Guthrie, it was all AI. Even Azure CTO Mark Russinovich’s annual tour of Azure hardware innovations focused on support for AI. For the first few years after Nadella became CEO, he spoke many times about what he called “the intelligent cloud and the intelligent edge,” mixing the power of big data, machine learning, and edge-based processing. It was an industrial view of the cloud-native world, but it set the tone for Microsoft’s app...

By Jeff Wittich The vast majority of company leaders (98%) recognize the strategic importance of AI, with nearly 65% planning increased investments. Global AI spending is expected to reach $300 billion by 2026. Also by 2026, AI’s electricity usage could increase tenfold, according to the International Energy Agency. Clearly, AI presents businesses with a dual challenge: maximizing AI’s capabilities while minimizing its environmental impact. In the United States alone, power consumption by data centers is expected to double by 2030, reaching 35GW (gigawatts), primarily due to the growing demand...
