TCS Launches WisdomNext, A Novel GenAI Aggregation Platform

Navigating the ever-evolving world of artificial intelligence (AI) can be tough for businesses, especially considering the vast number of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) tools are available.

This is where businesses face trouble in adopting GenAI tools as they face uncertainty in experimenting, understanding and picking the right tool.

This is what Tata Consultancy Services Limited or TCS is looking to solve with their latest offering – WisdomNext.

So, what’s TCS’s WisdomNext platform all about? Let’s explore!
 

What Is TCS’s WisdomNext Platform?

 

• Through a press release published on its website, Tata Consultancy Services Limited AKA TCS announced the launch of its WisdomNext platform, which serves as an industry-first GenAI aggregation platform.

• The WisdomNext platform combines multiple GenAI and cloud services into a single interface, allowing businesses to quickly adopt next-gen technologies at scale, lower costs and within regulatory frameworks, with minimal coding.

• It allows real-time experimentation across vendor, internal and open-source LLM models, while helping remove barriers to develop and launch business solutions.
