At IBM, we’re always excited to see how our partners are driving innovation 💡 and transforming industries with the power of AI #watsonx. One fantastic example is Tutore, a dynamic educational platform serving over 335,000 students across Poland 🇵🇱 . Working with our partner TUATARA, Tutore implemented a virtual assistant—Tutorek—powered by IBM watsonx™ Assistant #watsonx to enhance both student engagement and operational efficiency. In just 9 months, Tutorek has handled over 90,000 messages and resolved 95% of queries, allowing Tutore’s support staff to focus on high-value tasks and improving the overall student experience. This partnership is a testament to how AI can help organizations scale, innovate, and deliver real value.

Join #theCUBE’s broadcast now from the #IBMARFORUM, as we explore the partnership between IBM and Amazon Web Services (AWS) with Nick Otto, General Manager at IBM. “When I look at our relationship with AWS, we've spent a lot of time on making products available, but now in this next phase, we're seeing this very much as a team sport… We announced it earlier this year, the fact that watsonx.governance and Amazon SageMaker are now playing nicely together to make sure that governance can govern SageMaker activities,” Otto shares. “That's just the start of a lot more of that collaborative piece. It's going beyond just making our software available and moving towards making sure it works amazing with our best partners,” he adds. 📺 Tune in now for more insights! https://lnkd.in/gDrYabYM 🧠 Learn more at: https://www.ibm.com/aws #EnterpriseAI #CIOinsights #IBM #AI #Multicloud #SaaS John Furrier IBM Partner Plus

How Does Combustion Fuel Your AI? Ayal Steinberg's analogy of combustion as the fusion of fuel and spark resonates deeply with IBM's approach to AI development. This compassionate mindset is reflected in the remarkable growth of IBM's technical community. #IBMTechXchange encourages 'learning through doing.' Ayal emphasized the importance of stepping out of our comfort and panic zones, as the stretch zone is where we develop tech skills through struggle. My tech journey reflects this: attending TechXchange brought back memories of my early career in finance, where I ventured beyond my comfort zone to design financial planning applications that directly impacted enterprise deployments. The panel discussion on “How IBM Partners are Winning with IBM” was a highlight of Partner Day at TechXchange. It was inspiring to hear from Deloitte, Samsung, GS Lab, Rootly, and Applause about how integrating IBM watsonx.ai has driven powerful, AI-enhanced improvements in their businesses. The quality of responses, responsible AI, domain expertise, adaptability, cloud cost management, trusted partnerships, built-in governance, and lower total cost of ownership were cited as reasons for selecting IBM watsonx as their partner. Several AI innovations unveiled on Day One: ✅ Granite 3.0 AI Models: Third-generation models that outperform or match competitors in performance, cost efficiency, transparency, and safety. ✅ IBM watsonx Code Assistant: A generative AI tool that boosts developer productivity across various programming languages. ✅ IBM watsonx Assistant for HR: An AI chat experience that automates #HR tasks and streamlines employee interactions. IBM's ecosystem-driven approach is yielding results: ✅ 70% of watsonx revenue comes through the ecosystem. ✅ The IBM tech community has grown to 350,000 users. ✅ The client base has more than doubled since last year. ✅ Over 5,000 attendees participated in TechXchange 2024, with 10,000 anticipated next year and 20,000 by 2027. I’m excited for day two’s Opening Kickoff with Dinesh Nirmal, as well as getting hands-on experience at the labs. I look forward to hosting Rob Mason, CTO at Applause, on CXO Spice for a discussion on 'Advancing Digital Quality with watsonx'. I’ll do my best to attend the Beachbox Poolside Party, despite having a scratch on my eye and being on medication. By fostering combustion and collaboration within its ecosystem, IBM is not only fueling AI innovation but also ensuring that this technology is developed and deployed responsibly, with a focus on real-world impact and ethical considerations. This approach demonstrates how compassion can indeed serve as the catalyst that unites the fuel of technology with the spark of human ingenuity, driving meaningful advancements in AI for businesses and society at large. https://ibm.biz/BdaSm7 #IBMPartner #IBMPartnerPlus #AI 👉 Subscribe to #CXOSpice newsletter https://lnkd.in/gy2RJ9xg or YouTube channel https://lnkd.in/gnMc-Vpj to gain more insights
