Every query an enterprise AI application processes, every correction a subject matter expert makes to its output — that interaction is training data. Most organizations are not capturing it. The production workflows companies have already built are generating a continuous signal that improves AI models, and it is disappearing.San Francisco-based Empromptu AI on Thursday launched Alchemy Models with a straightforward premise: the AI applications enterprises are already building are generating...

Several methods to... Read more ›
