Why the Cortex 6 Low-Code AI Solution Is a Game Changer

With today’s announcement of the new Cortex 6 product, CognitiveScale takes another meaningful step in making AI tools accessible to line-of-business experts, outside the domain of computer scientists and AI engineers.

As the first-of-its-kind low-code solution, it’s a big leap towards a vision of empowering businesses to build and manage their own AI solutions. Now, subject matter and line-of-business experts can use AI campaigns to solve business problems, then disseminate the resulting data-driven decision intelligence throughout the company.

The work Cortex 6 does computationally has historically been done by business analysts, an audience with little-to-no code familiarity. The interface and overall user experience are therefore of vital importance — it must be sophisticated enough to manipulate thousands of complex factors yet simple enough for business experts to use effectively. So we worked closely with CognitiveScale to design a user experience that makes the development and management of AI solutions less of a raw engineering chore and more of a creative task for the business.

When designing Cortex 6, we needed to consider the many roles that need to be involved in deploying an AI solution. The barriers of complex or overly specialized interfaces needed to be removed so the hard work of…
