NRI Partners with Oracle for AI Financial Platform

At Oracle CloudWorld 2024, NRI and Oracle announced a partnership to develop an advanced financial AI platform, emphasizing reliability and accuracy due to Japan's strict data protection laws. Meanwhile, U.S. businesses are investing heavily in generative AI, averaging over $67 million per company, yet face significant challenges like talent shortages and outdated business models that may hinder progress. A report by Appen highlighted a 17% surge in generative AI adoption but pointed out increasing difficulties in sourcing and managing high-quality data necessary for effective AI applications. Victor Orlovski from R136 Ventures noted the rapid adoption of generative AI in startups, although he cautioned that increased market saturation may limit overall success rates for new ventures. Additionally, F5 and NetApp have teamed up to enhance the application of large language models through their integrated multicloud solutions, aiming to improve AI system performance and security. This collaboration particularly targets the management of AI in a hybrid cloud environment, facilitating innovation and reducing operational costs.
