Companies hate to admit it, but the road to production-level AI deployment is littered with proof of concepts (PoCs) that go nowhere, or failed projects that never deliver on their goals. In certain domains, there’s little tolerance for iteration, especially in something like life sciences, when the AI application is facilitating new treatments to markets or diagnosing diseases. Even slightly inaccurate analyses and assumptions early on can create sizable downstream drift in ways that can be concerning.In a

Enterprise AI has a data problem. Despite billions in investment and increasingly capable language models, most organizations still can't answer basic analytical questions about their document repositories. The culprit isn't model quality but architecture: Traditional retrieval augmented generation (RAG) systems were designed to retrieve and summarize, not analyze and aggregate across large document sets.Snowflake is tackling this limitation head-on with a comprehensive platform strategy announced at its BU Read more ›
