By Paul Krill GitHub is offering a technical preview of GitHub Copilot Workspace, which provides a developer environment based on the GitHub Copilot AI-powered programming assistant. The GitHub Copilot Workspace preview was introduced April 29. Described as a Copilot-native development environment for everyday tasks, GitHub Copilot Workspace allows developers “to brainstorm, plan, build, test, and run code in natural language,” GitHub said. GitHub Copilot Chat, the natural language assistant, was introduced in November. GitHub Copilot Workspace features an AI-assisted, task-centric workflow. S...

By Matt Asay In the rush to embrace coding assistants like Amazon CodeWhisperer to generate new code for developers, we haven’t spent much time asking if that code is any good. By some measures, the answer is clearly “no.” According to a GitClear analysis, “Code generated during 2023 … resembles [that of] an itinerant contributor,” likely caused by increased use of coding assistants. This is not to say that coding assistants are bad. They can be incredibly helpful. The issue is we need to invest more time figuring out ways to apply generative AI to tasks like code refactoring now, as covered i...

By David Linthicum Back in the early days of the cloud, I had a nice little business taking enterprise applications and reengineering them so they could be delivered as software-as-a-service cloud assets. Many enterprises believed that their custom application, which provided value by addressing a niche need, could be resold as a SaaS service and become another source of income. I saw a tire company, a healthcare company, a bank, and even a bail-bond management company attempt to become cloud players before infrastructure as a service was a thing. Sometimes it worked out. The key hindrance was...

By Anirban Ghoshal Cloud-based data warehouse company Snowflake has developed an open-source large language model (LLM), Arctic, to take on the likes of Meta’s Llama 3, Mistral’s family of models, xAI’s Grok-1, and Databricks’ DBRX. Arctic is aimed at enterprise tasks such as SQL generation, code generation, and instruction following, Snowflake said Wednesday. It can be accessed via Snowflake’s managed machine learning and AI service, Cortex, for serverless inference via its Data Cloud offering and across model providers such as Hugging Face, Lamini, AWS, Azure, Nvidia, Perplexity, and Togethe...

The United Kingdom’s competition body is launching preliminary inquiries into whether Microsoft and Amazon’s partnerships with artificial intelligence (AI) start-ups comply with its merger rules and if these investments could impact competition. Wednesday’s announcement by the UK’s Competition and Market Authority (CMA) comes as Big Tech companies invest heavily in AI companies without formerly being in merger agreements, bypassing regulation. The CMA said it was looking into partnerships between Microsoft and Mistral AI, as well as Amazon and Anthropic. They will also look into Microsoft’s hi...

By Chandini Jain Generative AI entered the global consciousness with a bang at the close of 2022 (cue: ChatGPT), but making it work in the enterprise has amounted to little more than a series of stumbles. Shadow AI use in the enterprise is sky high as employees are making day-to-day task companions out of AI chat tools. But for the knowledge-intensive workflows that are core to an organization’s mission, generative AI has yet to deliver on its lofty promise to transform the way we work. Don’t bet on this trough of disillusionment to last very long, however. A process called retrieval-augmented...
