Intel, BCG Collaborate to Deliver Enterprise-Grade, Secure Generative AI

[btarunr]

Intel Corporation and Boston Consulting Group (BCG) today announced a strategic collaboration to enable generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) using end-to-end Intel AI hardware and software. The GenAI solution delivers fully custom and proprietary solutions to enterprise clients while keeping private data in the isolation of their trusted environments.

BCG leveraged Intel's AI supercomputer powered by Intel Xeon Scalable processors and AI-optimized Habana Gaudi hardware accelerators, as well as production-ready hybrid cloud-scale software. The Intel system powers BCG's GenAI model that delivers insights based on over 50 years' worth of highly confidential and proprietary data. In addition, all AI training and inferencing was completed within BCG's security perimeter.



"Generative AI requires a truly democratized approach that enables more secure and scalable choice so enterprises can safely benefit from the technology," said Sandra Rivera, executive vice president and general manager of the Data Center and AI Group at Intel. "Our collaboration with BCG allows us to help customers build generative AI applications that require technology optimized across the entire stack completely inside their chosen security perimeter."

(from wikipedia)

Boston Consulting Group, Inc. (BCG) is an American global management consulting firm founded in 1963 and headquartered in Boston, Massachusetts.[3] It is one of the Big Three (or MBB, the world’s three largest management consulting firms by revenue) along with Bain & Company and McKinsey & Company. Since 2021, the consultancy has been led by the German executive Christoph Schweizer.[4]

It says right there who they are...
Yet, I'm still asking myself "No, seriously. WHO?" I should've heard of these folks, even just in memes/jokes.

Oh.

Saudi Arabia​

The New York Times also reported that Boston Consulting Group is one of the consulting firms, along with McKinsey and Booz Allen, helping Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman consolidate power in Saudi Arabia.[21] While a BCG spokesperson said the firm turns down projects involving military and intelligence strategy, BCG is involved in designing the economic blueprint for the country, a plan called Vision 2030.[21]

In June 2021, BCG was hired to examine the feasibility for the country to host the 2030 FIFA World Cup. The bid was assessed to be a great deal, as FIFA’s policy of continental rotation blocked all the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) nations from hosting the World Cup until 2034, after Qatar was set to become the first Middle Eastern nation to host the tournament in 2022.[22]

Well... I'm out.
