Why Lingusitic and non-Linguistic AI are Complementary
Splunk’s observability strategy has always put AI functionality at the centre. We have always recognised that, in order to make actionable sense of full fidelity data metric, event, log, and trace data streams, human cognition requires an automated assist which is precisely what AI brings to the table. As a result, throughout our observability portfolio, customers will find a variety of machine learning and pattern discovery algorithms being put to work, separating signals from noise, surfacing patterns of correlation, diagnosing root causes, and enabling remedial responses to incidents. AI, itself, is, of course, evolving at a rapid clip and with AI Assist, Splunk adds Generative or linguistic AI functionality to the mix. But what is linguistic AI and how does it relate to the non-linguistic or Foundational AI that Splunk has deployed in its products to date?
