Exciting news from Walmart, Meta, and LinkedIn! These companies are currently testing internal generative AI options for employees that are safe for the use of company data. Walmart has even announced its new Generative AI Playground, a platform where associates can explore and learn about this new technology while keeping the company and its data safe.

Walmart announces a new generative AI playground
Last week, Walmart announced its new Generative AI Playground, a platform the company describes as an “early-stage internal GenAI tool where associates can explore and learn about this new technology, while keeping our company and its data safe.”
The news builds on an interview in April with Desiree Gosby, VP of emerging technology at Walmart Global Tech, who told NeuralNation that the retailer is building on OpenAI’s GPT-4, among other models, and that generative AI is “as big a shift as mobile.”
Walmart, the American retail giant, LinkedIn, the world’s leading professional network, and Meta, a management platform for small businesses, are all taking a stand to invest in the development of Artificial Intelligence (AI). The three companies have been experimenting with internal AI generated choices for staff in order to increase efficiency and productivity.Walmart, by partnering with Microsoft, has been using AI and Machine Learning (ML) to help improve the resources and skills for its employees. With the help of AI, Walmart are able to make better and faster decisions when it comes to staff retention, job postings, and performance reviews. This helps Walmart make more accurate and informed choices about their staff. In addition, Walmart also uses AI to develop and automate management guidelines.
LinkedIn is another example of a company investing in AI. LinkedIn actively uses AI to improve their recruiting and hiring practices. They are able to automatically detect simple and complex patterns in the data provided by applicants and quickly recommend the most suitable job openings for them. This helps LinkedIn narrow down the list of suitable job seekers and focus on the most promising candidates.
Finally, Meta, a company committed to empowering small businesses with technology, is also heavily involved in developing its own AI model. The company describes its AI as “an AI-driven platform to customize employee decisions for each individual business.” It’s goal is to come up with unbiased and informed choices that are most suitable for each business’s needs.
As the world moves towards automation, many of the world’s largest companies are investing in AI-driven applications to help increase efficiency. Walmart, LinkedIn, and Meta have all taken significant steps to integrate AI into their decision-making and have provided real-world applications of its capabilities.
