    I have built a code accelerator tool for one of the IBM product implementation. Although there was a heavy lifting at the start to train the model on specifics of the packaged solution library and ways of working; the efficacy of the model is astounding. Having said that, watsonx.ai is very well suited for customer service automation, healthcare data analytics, financial fraud detection, and sentiment analysis kind of projects. The Watsonx.ai look and feel is little confusing but I understand over a period of time , it will improve dramatically as well. I do feel that Watsonx.ai has certain limitations from cross-platform deployment flexibility. If an organization is deeply invested in a multi-cloud environment, Watson's integration on other cloud platforms may not be seamless comported to other AI platforms.

    No brainer to use it when doing ML experiments as it is very easy compared to any other open source tool. You don't have to host anything like in Tensorboard.
    Experiment details can be shared very easily with public using the reports

    Cons
    IBM
    • IBM watsonx.ai is expensive than other platforms.
    • Limited integraions though it has many but still some tools integrations not there for medical usecase
    • Its little difficult to learn as right now not many open reseouces
    • Community is not that strong to get any answer

    Usability
    IBM
    I needed some time to understand the different parts of the web UI. It was slightly overwhelming in the beginning. However, after some time, it made sense, and I like the UI now. In terms of functionality, there are many useful features that make your life easy, like jumping to a section and giving me a deployment space to deploy my models easily.

    IBM watsonx.ai has been far superior to that of Chat GPT AI. the UI elements prompt responses and overall execution of the AI was much better and more accurate compared to the competition. I can not recommend using this platform enough. Great job IBM. I hope the team behind this project continues to grow and prosper.

    Return on Investment
    IBM
    • Time saving to set up the infrastructure - without watsonx.ai we would have had to set up everything individually
    • The first point translates directly into cost savings
    • The compliance aspect was a game changer for us and provided us with the confidence to focus all our efforts only on IBM watsonx.ai
