HSE researchers have developed an MLOps platform called SmartMLOps. It has been created for artificial intelligence researchers who wish to transform their invention into a fully-fledged service. In the future, the platform may host AI assistants to simplify educational processes, provide medical support, offer consultations, and solve a wide range of other tasks. Creators of AI technologies will be able to obtain a ready-to-use service within just a few hours. Utilising HSE’s supercomputer, the service can be launched in just a few clicks.
