What are the Major Types of Artificial Intelligence?

Inputs & Outputs

Artificial intelligence is a tool that allows you to intuitively discover the relationship between inputs and outputs. What goes into an AI model can be translated, converted, and put to work via a variety of methodologies.

For example, an input may be drone footage of a disaster area and its output could be a damage estimate.

In this guide, we’ll explore all of the different kinds of inputs and outputs you can work with. These possibilities, when combined with your existing data, can give you the building blocks you need to string together an AI solution for your organization.

MedGemma: A New Era for Healthcare AI

MedGemma is Google's revolutionary open AI model for healthcare, offering unprecedented control and data sovereignty. Its self-hosting capability ensures privacy and governance, enabling custom fine-tuning with proprietary data. This democratizes advanced medical AI, empowering organizations to revolutionize patient care and research with purpose-built precision.

🧠 Host Your Own AI Model - In-House

In an era dominated by cloud computing, there are still compelling reasons to host AI models on-premises. While cloud-based solutions offer scalability and convenience, certain environments demand more control, reliability, and privacy. Hosting models locally ensures greater data governance, allows compliance with industry or regulatory standards, and enhances security by keeping sensitive information within a closed network. It also becomes essential in situations where internet connectivity is unreliable or unavailable, such as in remote facilities, secure government operations, or offline field deployments. Additionally, on-prem hosting can offer reduced latency, cost predictability, and full control over model execution and updates—making it a critical choice for organizations with strict operational or compliance requirements. This will show you how to run a basic document Q&A offline using: Ollama + local LLM (Gemma3, Mistral, Llama3.3, etc.) LangChain FAISS (vector DB) SentenceTransformers (embeddings) PyPDF (PDF loading)

How to extract knowledge from documents with Google PaLM 2 LLM

PaLM 2 is Google's next generation large language model that builds on Google’s legacy of breakthrough research in machine learning and responsible AI. It excels at advanced reasoning tasks, including code and math, classification and question answering, translation and multilingual proficiency, and natural language generation better than previous state-of-the-art LLMs. It can accomplish these tasks because of the way it was built – bringing together compute-optimal scaling, an improved dataset mixture, and model architecture improvements. This article offers a quick and straightforward method for leveraging the PaLM 2 API to extract knowledge and ask questions from text.
