Intel and Boston Consulting Group (BCG) have partnered to provide enterprise clients with generative artificial intelligence (GenAI).

Through the collaboration, the firms expect to facilitate GenAI using end-to-end Intel AI hardware and software to offer fully custom and proprietary solutions to clients and protect the private data of their trusted environments.

The partnership will enable an enterprise-grade offering to help organisations meet scaling and life-cycle management requirements seamlessly and in a more cost-efficient manner.

Intel data centre and AI group executive vice president and general manager Sandra Rivera said: “Generative AI requires a truly democratized approach that enables more secure and scalable choice so enterprises can safely benefit from the technology.

“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.”

BCG said that it has utilised Intel’s AI supercomputer driven by the complementary advantages of Intel Xeon scalable processors and AI-optimised Habana Gaudi hardware accelerators and production-ready hybrid cloud-scale software.

The Intel system is expected to bolster BCG’s GenAI model that offers insights drawn from more than 50 years’ worth of highly private and proprietary data.

Besides, all AI training and inferencing are said to be completed within BCG’s security perimeter.

BCG managing director and partner Suchi Srinivasan said: “Our collaboration with Intel will enable enterprises to develop competitive advantages via custom GenAI solutions while thoughtfully navigating the people, process, and policy changes required to derive the maximum value from these transformative solutions.”

The combined offering intends to address various real-world business problems like using automated portfolio management agents for the asset management sector, airline maintenance operations using proprietary airline data, and more-secure software development agents with custom private codebases.
