Developed and deployed AI agents through a unified platform that supports integration with enterprise systems
We used AutoML feature for developing AI models automatically, but we are not comfortable with the performance of those models. We have to do some fine-tuning, hyperparameter optimization, and other optimizations to enhance the performance of the AI models. We are not fully leveraging the automation being provided by Google Vertex AI for building AI models. Google Vertex AI has to be enhanced to support agentic AI system development. AI agents have to be developed through Google Vertex AI. Additionally, RAG support, vector database support, knowledge graph support, integration with enterprise systems such as ERP, CRM, PLM, MES, and other enterprise systems need improvement. Automated workflow generation and automation could also be enhanced. At this point, we are completely satisfied with the features and functionalities of Google Vertex AI platform, but as we move towards autonomous systems through agentic AI paradigm, Google Vertex AI platform needs to be improved to facilitate agentic AI system design, development, deployment, monitoring, observability, governance, and security.

Versatility empowers AI concept development despite the multi-GPU challenge
Regarding scalability, I'm finding the multi-GPU aspect of it challenging. Training the model is another hurdle, although I'm only getting into that aspect currently. Organizations are apprehensive about investing in multi-GPU setups. Additionally, data cleanup is a challenge that needs to be resolved, as data must be mature and pristine.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Vertex comes with inbuilt integration with GCP for data storage."
"Vertex AI possesses multiple libraries, so it eliminates the need for extensive coding."
"With just one single platform, Google Vertex AI platform, we can achieve everything; we need not switch over to multiple tools, multiple platforms, as everything can be accomplished through this one single platform for integration with existing workflows, systems, tools, and databases."
"The monitoring feature is a true life-saver for data scientists. I give it a ten out of ten."
"It provides the most valuable external analytics."
"Google Vertex AI is an out-of-the-box and very easy-to-use solution."
"The support is perfect and fantastic."
"The best feature of Google Vertex AI is the ease of use, along with the integration with the rest of the Google ecosystem and the way models can be made available outside Google through endpoints."
"The product is reliable."
"There are numerous libraries available, and the documentation is rich and step-by-step, helping us understand which model to use in particular conditions."
"Hugging Face provides open-source models, making it the best open-source and reliable solution."
"I appreciate the versatility and the fact that it has generalized many models."
"The tool's most valuable feature is that it's open-source and has hundreds of packages already available. This makes it quite helpful for creating our LLMs."
"What I find the most valuable about Hugging Face is that I can check all the models on it and see which ones have the best performance without using another platform."
"The most valuable features are the inference APIs as it takes me a long time to run inferences on my local machine."
"My preferred aspects are natural language processing and question-answering."
 

Cons

"I believe that Vertex AI is a robust platform, but its effectiveness depends significantly on the domain knowledge of the developer using it. While Vertex AI does offer support through the console UI in the Google Cloud environment, it is better suited for technical members who have a deeper understanding of machine learning concepts. The platform may be challenging for business process developers (BPDUs) who lack extensive technical knowledge, as it involves intricate customization and handling numerous parameters. Effectively utilizing Vertex AI requires not only familiarity with machine learning frameworks like TensorFlow or PyTorch but also a proficiency in Python programming. The complexity of these requirements might pose challenges for less technically oriented users, making it crucial to have a solid foundation in both machine learning principles and Python coding to extract the full value from Vertex AI. It would be beneficial to have a streamlined process where we can leverage the capabilities of Vertex AI directly through the BigQuery UI. This could involve functionalities such as creating machine learning models within the BigQuery UI, providing a more user-friendly and integrated experience. This would allow users to access and analyze data from BigQuery while simultaneously utilizing Vertex AI to build machine learning models, fostering a more cohesive and efficient workflow."
"Google Vertex AI is quite complex to navigate and to start services with, as I need to do a lot of iterations to finally activate the services, which is one major flaw, although it is powerful."
"Google can improve Google Vertex AI in terms of analysis and accuracy. When passing a very large context, instead of receiving vague responses, it would be better if the system could prompt users not to pass overly large prompts and provide clearer guidance on how to fine-tune Gemini for specific use cases."
"It would be beneficial to have certain features included in the future, such as image generators and text-to-speech solutions."
"The tool's documentation is not good. It is hard."
"It is not completely mature and needs some features and functions. The interface needs to be more user-friendly."
"I think the technical documentation is not readily available in the tool."
"I've noticed that using chat activity often presents a broader range of options and insights for a well-constructed question. Improving the knowledge base could be a key aspect for enhancement—expanding the information sources to enhance the generation process."
"The initial setup can be rated as a seven out of ten due to occasional issues during model deployment, which might require adjustments."
"It can incorporate AI into its services."
"I believe Hugging Face has some room for improvement. There are some security issues. They provide code, but API tokens aren't indicated. Also, the documentation for particular models could use more explanation. But I think these things are improving daily. The main change I'd like to see is making the deployment of inference endpoints more customizable for users."
"Regarding scalability, I'm finding the multi-GPU aspect of it challenging. Training the model is another hurdle, although I'm only getting into that aspect currently."
"Implementing a cloud system to showcase historical data would be beneficial."
"Most people upload their pre-trained models on Hugging Face, but more details should be added about the models."
"I've worked on three projects using Hugging Face, and only once did we encounter a problem with the code. We had to use another open-source embedding from OpenAI to resolve it. Our team has three members: me, my colleague, and a team leader. We looked at the problem and resolved it."
"The solution must provide an efficient LLM."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution's pricing is moderate."
"I think almost every tool offers a decent discount. In terms of credits or other stuff, every cloud provider provides a good number of incentives to onboard new clients."
"The price structure is very clear"
"The Versa AI offers attractive pricing. With this pricing structure, I can leverage various opportunities to bring value to my business. It's a positive aspect worth considering."
"The tool is open-source. The cost depends on what task you're doing. If you're using a large language model with around 12 million parameters, it will cost more. On average, Hugging Face is open source so you can download models to your local machine for free. For deployment, you can use any cloud service."
"We do not have to pay for the product."
"The solution is open source."
"I recall seeing a fee of nine dollars, and there's also an enterprise option priced at twenty dollars per month."
"Hugging Face is an open-source solution."
"So, it's requires expensive machines to open services or open LLM models."
