IBM launched IBM AI OpenScale, a platform designed to help enterprises build, run, manage and operate artificial intelligence applications. The launch of AI OpenScale is part of IBM's ongoing effort to become a management plane for AI and add transparency to so-called black box approaches. If AI sprawl isn't here today it soon will be and enterprises are likely to have a management headache ahead. IBM has been pushing for more AI transparency and tools that allow data scientists as well as business executives find flaws in models. For IBM, AI OpenScale is one front of a multi-pronged strategy to position its wares as being more open and serve as an integrator for data, multiple clouds and security analysis.
