OP said the following about AI SaaS providers:
You are using a “ready” product and so everyone gets the updates to model but your own modifications for the model are impossible with current providers.
I think this may not be true about Azure. In Build conference this year, they demoed cognitive service APIs where one can use transfer learning techniques, and train models and use them.
- theikkila 9y agoThat sounds interesting, it's funny if you really can use their own models as base and do that. For the platform sake, Google offers also SaaS where you can train and evaluate your own models but then the base model is something you have to provide yourself EDIT: I tried to google that up but couldn't find anything. Could you provide a link for that
- rabizzio 9y agoI assume it's the following link: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/services/cognitive-services/ https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/services/cognitive-service...
- theikkila 9y agoHmm ok, yeah apparently you can leverage their API's and teach new labels for your own data. https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/services/cognitive-services/custom-vision-service/ https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/services/cognitive-service... That is great and will definetly help with problems where your task isn't just to recognize cats and dogs the only downside is that you are giving your data away and it will also help your competitors.
