UiPath, a leading enterprise automation and AI software company, has announced several new generative AI (GenAI) features designed to help enterprises harness the full potential of AI with automation. The company introduced these new capabilities at its virtual AI Summit held on March 19.
The new features address key areas to ensure customers can enhance the performance and accuracy of GenAI models and tackle diverse business challenges more easily. UiPath’s Chief Product Officer, Graham Sheldon, emphasized the importance of providing businesses with an assortment of AI models that are best in class for every task.
UiPath introduced new Large Language Models (LLMs), DocPATH and CommPATH, which are extensively trained for specific tasks such as document processing and communications. These models provide businesses with tools to customize AI to their exact requirements, allowing them to understand any document and a variety of message types.
The company also introduced Context Grounding, a feature within the UiPath AI Trust Layer that helps businesses improve the accuracy of GenAI models by providing prompts with a foundation of business context. This system extracts information from company-specific datasets to create more accurate and insightful responses.
UiPath has partnered with IBM to create a unique watsonx.ai connector, which provides UiPath customers with access to multiple foundational models currently available in watsonx.ai. This collaboration will help support successful GenAI adoption and infuse AI into more powerful and complex automated workflows.
UiPath also announced updates to its Autopilot™ suite, with new experiences for Developers and Testers. These features empower automation developers to create automations, code, and expressions with natural language and transform the testing lifecycle, reducing the burden of manual testing.
Finally, UiPath introduced prebuilt GenAI Activities that utilize the UiPath AI Trust Layer, providing access to a growing collection of GenAI use cases. These activities enable enterprises to reduce time to build and achieve a competitive edge using GenAI to customize customer experiences, optimize supply chains, forecast demands, and make informed decisions.
