Gcore is pleased to announce the availability of Pienso on the Gcore Cloud Platform powered by Graphcore IPUs. Pienso is a deep learning natural language processing (NLP) software company that makes it easy for domain experts to use Large Language Models to build, train and manage AI models aligned with their organization’s own data. Because Pienso is no-code/low-code, subject matter experts can shape models without ever seeing a line of code.
Pienso will utilize built-for-AI Graphcore IPU technology on the Gcore Cloud platform to offer the fastest and most cost-effective AI solutions to its end customers. Graphcore IPU technology is renowned for its ability to accelerate AI workloads, shrinking the time and cost to insights. In partnering with Gcore, Pienso will leverage Graphcore’s high-performance AI accelerators abstracting the complexities of MLOps to provide a turnkey solution. This provides end customers a cost-effective choice for how and where they build and deploy interactive AI models.
