    IBM Expands Software Availability to 92 Countries in AWS Marketplace

    IBM's software portfolio availability is expanding globally to 92 countries in AWS Marketplace, a digital catalog with thousands of software listings from independent software vendors (ISVs) that make it easy to find, test, buy, and deploy software that runs on Amazon Web Services (AWS). The expansion beyond Denmark, France, Germany, United Kingdom and United States, where the software is currently available, will help make procurement easier for clients, streamline purchasing and create new efficiencies, while allowing them to use their AWS committed spend for IBM software purchases.

      The EU AI Act - Driving New Levels of Human Oversight and Regulatory Compliance for AI

      The primary focus of the EU AI Act is to strengthen regulatory compliance in the areas of risk management, data protection, quality management systems, transparency, human oversight, accuracy, robustness and cyber security. It aims to drive transparency and accountability into how AI systems are developed and deployed, helping to ensure that AI products placed in the market are safe for individuals to use.

      AI Governance with watsonx

      It is important to highlight that AI governance applies not only to generative AI, as all AI models need governance and attention, including machine learning models to identify trends and patterns in data. Governing and monitoring these models to ensure they are explainable and transparent are crucial. As a real example, imagine a bank that has a predictive AI model to analyze loan applications and may need detailed explanations of its decisions in case of an audit process.
