Loblaw Partners with Shakudo to Centralize, Speed Up AI Development
By Adriano Marchese
Canadian grocer Loblaw is partnering with Shakudo to help standardize and speed up how it builds and deploys artificial intelligence across the company.
Loblaw said Monday that Shakudo's platform will let its teams build AI tools that connect directly to the company's internal systems, making it easier to roll out new technology across the business while keeping control over how it works.
Shakudo's platform lets companies build and run AI systems inside their own digital infrastructure, without sending data to third parties, and offers standard tools for developing AI while keeping all data stored and controlled internally.
The company said the setup is meant to prevent teams from building separate, incompatible systems and to give Loblaw a more consistent way to manage AI across its operations.
