Fujitsu and Cohere Partner to Develop Japanese AI Models for Enterprises
Fujitsu and Cohere Join Forces to Deliver Cutting-Edge Japanese AI Models for Enterprises
In a groundbreaking partnership, Fujitsu and Cohere have joined forces to develop and offer large language models (LLMs) tailored specifically for enterprises. This collaboration aims to leverage Japanese language capabilities to enhance customer and employee experiences, ushering in a new era of AI-driven innovation.
Introducing “Takane”: An Advanced Japanese Language Model
At the heart of this partnership lies “Takane” (tentative name), an advanced Japanese language model based on Cohere’s latest enterprise-grade LLM, Command R+. Slated for release in September 2024, Takane will be available through Fujitsu Kozuchi AI services for private cloud environments. Designed to meet the stringent security requirements of industries such as financial institutions, government agencies, and R&D units, Takane combines Fujitsu’s expertise in Japanese language training and fine-tuning with Cohere’s enterprise-specific technologies.
Unlocking Business Value with Retrieval-Augmented Generation
Takane boasts cutting-edge retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) capabilities, which help reduce hallucinations and ensure accurate information retrieval. Cohere’s Embed and Rerank models will also be part of the offering, providing advanced enterprise search applications and RAG technology to unlock business value from data. Using Chroma DB with UBOS for RAG AI apps has never been easier.
“This partnership is a crucial step in offering world-class LLM capabilities to a key enterprise market. Our work with Fujitsu will unlock the potential of Cohere’s technology to empower the next generation of Japanese businesses,” said Cohere chief Aiden Gomez.
Enhancing AI Capabilities for Enterprises
Fujitsu plans to release additional AI technologies, including a knowledge graph extended RAG technology in July 2024 and generative AI auditing technology in September 2024, through Fujitsu Kozuchi. These technologies aim to convert large-scale data into knowledge graphs for LLMs and ensure compliance with corporate and legal regulations.
Revolutionizing marketing with generative AI is just the beginning. Fujitsu’s generative AI amalgamation technology, available from August 2024, will be integrated with Takane and other domain-specific models to further enhance AI capabilities for enterprises.
Accelerating AI Adoption and Digital Transformation
Vivek Mahajan, CTO and CPO of Fujitsu Limited, emphasized the significance of combining Fujitsu’s knowledge graph and generative AI technologies with Cohere’s secure enterprise LLMs to provide adaptable AI solutions. This partnership between Fujitsu and Cohere aims to accelerate the adoption of AI in enterprises and promote digital transformation globally.
As businesses continue to navigate the ever-evolving landscape of AI, AI agents for enterprises are becoming increasingly crucial. By harnessing the power of cutting-edge Japanese AI models like Takane, organizations can unlock new levels of efficiency, innovation, and competitive advantage.
Conclusion
The partnership between Fujitsu and Cohere represents a significant step forward in the realm of enterprise AI. By combining their respective strengths, these two industry leaders are poised to deliver groundbreaking solutions that will empower businesses to harness the full potential of AI. As the world continues to embrace digital transformation, collaborations like this will undoubtedly shape the future of AI-driven enterprises.
