Deepak MK, Vice President of Data Science at ExamRoom.AI sits in with Jake to discuss the company’s primary mission: to provide a highly secure, unified assessment system and fair environment to the candidates who take online remote proctored exams. ExamRoom.AI’s research and advancements in AI technology have unleashed leap-forward technological accomplishments, leading to efforts toward making robust online testing a reality. Universities and organizations alike face difficulties in ensuring integrity and security in testing that ExamRoom.AI can address. Using 3rd Generation Intel® Xeon Scalable Processors and OpenVINO helped ExamRoom.AI reduce the occurrence of memory issues and build better machine learning models through its scalability and latency reduction, greatly reducing model training time. Intel’s Ice Lake processor speeds up and enhances their systems, helping avoid dreaded Out Of Memory (OOM) errors. Check out their website for more information at https://examroom.ai/

On today’s episode of Conversations in the Cloud Alex Liu, Chief Technology Officer of BasicAI stops by to talk about the company’s efforts at evolving the training data platform. Xtreme1 is the world's first open-source platform for multisensory training data and can rapidly accelerate the processing and management of training data. AI engineers spend a preponderance of their time preparing the training data. Through advanced AI-powered annotation tools, Xtreme1 improves modeling. Capable of handling various time-sensitive online/offline tasks, distributed data analysis computation, model training, evaluation, and inference, Xtreme1 is fully compatible with CPU-only runtime environments. In particular, the model inference has been optimized for Intel Xeon CPU to provide higher throughput. Inference throughput on Intel Xeon 8380 is vastly improved with the help of Intel extension for PyTorch and OpenVINO toolkit. For more information go to www.basic.ai and www.xtreme1.io

Dr. Yichuan Zhang, CEO of Boltzbit, joins host Jake Smith to discuss what is generative AI, why it matters to developers, and how the Boltzbit Generative AutoML platform helps tackle enterprise AI challenges. Dr. Yichuan started by sharing his journey of transitioning from academia to industry and entrepreneurship while developing a strong passion for solving complex challenges with generative AI. Dr. Yichuan explained why the next phase of AI is generative in terms of bigger and more dynamic output capacity, which makes AI development easier and faster. Dr. Yichuan praised the partnership with Intel where software optimization on CPU makes AI accessible on a broader range of devices, especially in public cloud infrastructure. While recognizing AI still has a long way to go, Dr. Yichuan sees generative AI to play an important role in unleashing AI capabilities to catch up with human intelligence at some levels.
