AI Refinery™

Why AI Refinery matters

Most companies are in their second or third year of trying to deploy gen AI, but only 36% have scaled one significant gen AI solution and just 13% report creating significant enterprise-level value. This is because they’re not confident in scaling AI, they’re hesitant that AI can quickly become the new source of technical debt, and an abundance of choices can be overwhelming. AI also needs to be customized with your own data and enterprise knowledge to solve specialized problems, but many can’t find easy ways to do it.

AI Refinery is an AI foundation platform, created by Accenture and built on NVIDIA AI Foundry, NVIDIA AI Enterprise, and NVIDIA Omniverse, to help companies turn raw AI technology into useful business solutions.

96%

of companies recognize gen AI’s impact, yet only 9% have fully deployed a use case, citing several scaling challenges.

50%

By 2028, more than 50% of enterprises that built large AI models from scratch will abandon their efforts due to costs, complexity and technical debt in their deployments. (Source)
