In the early days of the Internet, there were four ‘horsemen’ of the Internet
- Cisco
- EMC
- Oracle and the now eclipsed
- Sun Microsystems
With IBM’s 4.5 billion investment in Hugging face today, the generative AI landscape is becoming a bit clearer. There are four Generative AI leaders emerging – others lagging – and one unknown
Lets look at the four leaders of Generative AI as it stands today
- Azure OpenAI
- Meta/facebook with Llama
- IBM Hugging face and
- Databricks with its acquisition of Mosaic
Not in this list of leaders are
- Google – still a bit unclear. We are fans of Anthropic though in which Google has invested
- AWS – still a niche strategy
- Tesla – experiencing a bit of a Transformers moment 🙂 having contributed to OpenAI – now not a leader
- Oracle – unclear as of now
and the big unknown – Apple 🙂 no real idea / plan etc
There are really two implications of this
a) The battleground is in the Enterprise – although consumer gets a lot of attention in the media and
b) The talent race for AI will be hot!
We live in interesting times for sure 🙂
