Google Cloud solutions for ML and AI

Google Cloud provides a broad range of solutions to help folks leverage AI regardless of where they are in their data maturity journey. If you are a business user who wants to have a model autocomplete your words and sentences, Gmail or Google Docs may be very valuable. If, however, you are building applications and want to embed AI capabilities within your application, that’s where the Vertex AI platform truly shines.

There are essentially three ways to use ML models on Google Cloud: leverage off-the-shelf models, customize off-the-shelf models with your data and use case, or build models from scratch.

Pre-built models include models for natural language processing, image processing, and structured data processing such as clustering and linear regression. Google also provides the ability to tailor these pretrained models to your use case by training them on your data and classifiers. This is great when one of the pretrained models...
