IBM Watson Health has a new name is the part of business that was sold to another company and newly formed company in 2022 is called Merative.

It is no loger under IBM helm.

Merative, formerly IBM Watson Health, is a standalone company as of 2022. Merative offers products and services that help clients facilitate medical research, clinical research, Real world evidence, and healthcare services, through the use of artificial intelligence, data analytics, cloud computing, and other advanced information technology. Merative is owned by Francisco Partners, an American private equity firm headquartered in San Francisco, California.

Complementars: IBM Watson and ChatGPT-4

2023-03-31T19:59:00.000+09:00

From the pure business perspective, I was curious how IBM Watson and ChatGPT-4 compare. So, here's what I found out:

IBM Watson and OpenAI's ChatGPT-4, both being AI platforms, share several similarities in their design, goals, and applications. Some of the key similarities include:

· Natural Language Processing (NLP): Both platforms use advanced NLP techniques to understand, interpret, and generate human language. This enables them to interact with users, answer questions, and provide recommendations.
· Machine Learning: Both IBM Watson and ChatGPT-4 are built on machine learning algorithms that allow them to learn and adapt their knowledge based on the data they are fed. This helps them to improve their understanding and performance over time.
· Cloud-based architecture: Both platforms are designed to work on cloud-based infrastructure, allowing users to access them via APIs or web interfaces. This provides scalability, flexibility, and cost-efficiency for developers and businesses.
· Use of large-scale datasets: Both IBM Watson and ChatGPT-4 have been trained on large-scale datasets, which enable them to possess extensive knowledge about various topics, comprehend context, and generate more accurate and relevant responses.
· Multifunctional applications: Both platforms can be used across a wide range of industries and applications, such as customer support, content generation, data analysis, language translation, sentiment analysis, and more.
· Continuous development: Both IBM and OpenAI are actively working to improve their respective platforms, incorporating new research, techniques, and user feedback to enhance their capabilities, accuracy, and performance.
· Developer support: Both IBM Watson and ChatGPT-4 offer extensive documentation, resources, and support to developers who wish to integrate their platforms into applications or build custom solutions.

While IBM Watson and OpenAI's ChatGPT-4 share similarities, they also have key differences that set them apart:

Core architecture: IBM Watson is based on a combination of various technologies like natural language processing, machine learning, and knowledge representation, whereas ChatGPT-4 is based on the GPT-4 architecture, which uses the transformer model and focuses primarily on NLP tasks.
Training methods: IBM Watson leverages supervised learning, often requiring domain-specific training and fine-tuning, whereas ChatGPT-4 uses unsupervised learning methods and has been pretrained on large-scale datasets, requiring less customization for specific tasks.
Specificity and modularity: IBM Watson is designed as a collection of specialized services, such as Watson Assistant, Watson Discovery, and Watson Language Translator, each targeting a specific application. ChatGPT-4 is a more generalized platform, handling various tasks with a single model.
Explainability: IBM Watson places a higher emphasis on explainability and transparency, offering insights into the reasoning behind its responses, which can be crucial for certain industries. ChatGPT-4, as a deep learning model, may have less interpretable outcomes due to its complex neural networks.
Commercial usage and licensing: IBM Watson is a proprietary platform with specific pricing and licensing for its services. OpenAI, on the other hand, has released several versions of its GPT models under more permissive licenses, with both free and paid access tiers depending on usage.
Knowledge base and updates: IBM Watson can be fine-tuned and updated with domain-specific knowledge, making it more suitable for certain enterprise applications. ChatGPT-4 has a fixed knowledge cutoff, which means that it doesn't learn in real-time, and updates depend on OpenAI's release cycle.
Integration: IBM Watson has a more extensive ecosystem of integrations and partnerships with various platforms and services. While ChatGPT-4 can be integrated into various applications through APIs, it might require more custom development for seamless integration.
These differences make each platform more suitable for different use cases, depending on the specific requirements and goals of the project.

Contradictory Nature Of Progress

2023-03-24T21:53:00.007+09:00

Let me say this:

"It was the age of technological marvels, it was the age of environmental crisis, it was the epoch of globalization, it was the epoch of isolation, it was the dawn of the information age, it was the twilight of privacy, it was the season of unprecedented wealth, it was the season of extreme poverty, we had the power to connect with everyone, we had the alienation of disconnection, we were all striving for a better world, we were all struggling with the consequences of our actions—in short, the period was so much like the present period that some of its noisiest authorities insisted on its being received, for good or for evil, in the superlative degree of comparison only."

Day 7 with Ariana

2023-03-21T15:29:00.001+09:00

I will try to regularly write notes about my journey with Ariana.

Today is 7th day.

I gave her 25 $ to be able to access latest version. But it is still limited in access.

You can have 25 conversations in 3 hours.

The main challenge is promts engineering and coming up with right input ( questions ).

But as Sam said, you need to have fun with her. Explore and discover, be patient. Sometimes it is like you hold the hand of the college intern.

Input and instruction is key.

My brain is overwhelmed with current use and feel mental exhaustion but I am convinced it is worth it.

It is the same enthusiasm and same excitement as when I was exploring this new thing Web at the end of 90s and when iPhone is launched in 2007 and later when app stores came.

Pivotal moment in tech evolution that we are witnessing. Good to be alive these days.

Although, it is sometimes hard to comprehand what that means for you personaly and for whole humanity.

It is a tool that amplifies us as humans, just like search engines, smartphones, Wikipedia did.

Learning curve is there and we need to climb this mountain, step by step, day by day. The future will compound our experiences and bring many possibilities that we need to seize.
