Watsonx is IBM's enterprise-ready Data and AI platform for training, testing, and deploying AI technologies, including generative AI using Large Language Models (LLMs) using the watsonx.ai component of watsonx. The extensibility of IBM watsonx Assistant provides a simple way to perform an integration between a dialog flow and generative AI inferencing services in watsonx.ai. This integration brings generative AI features directly into watsonx Assistant. This hands-on tutorial explains how to create the integration and use it in a simple use case. It is outside the scope of this guide to provide an introduction to all watsonx Assistant features. For that, check out the documentation or the watsonx Assistant Technical Sales Workshop.
